+Introduction
+============
+
+This document covers the Linux Kernel to Userspace API's used by video
+and radio streaming devices, including video cameras, analog and digital
+TV receiver cards, AM/FM receiver cards, streaming capture and output
+devices, codec devices and remote controllers.
+
+A typical media device hardware is shown at
+:ref:`typical_media_device`.

+ Typical Media Device
+
+ Typical Media Device Block Diagram
+
+
+
+The media infrastructure API was designed to control such devices. It is
+divided into four parts.
+
+The first part covers radio, video capture and output, cameras, analog
+TV devices and codecs.
+
+The second part covers the API used for digital TV and Internet
+reception via one of the several digital tv standards. While it is
+called as DVB API, in fact it covers several different video standards
+including DVB-T/T2, DVB-S/S2, DVB-C, ATSC, ISDB-T, ISDB-S,etc. The
+complete list of supported standards can be found at
+:ref:`fe-delivery-system-t`.
+
+The third part covers the Remote Controller API.
+
+The fourth part covers the Media Controller API.
+
+It should also be noted that a media device may also have audio
+components, like mixers, PCM capture, PCM playback, etc, which are
+controlled via ALSA API.
+

+******************************
+FE_DISHNETWORK_SEND_LEGACY_CMD
+******************************
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+WARNING: This is a very obscure legacy command, used only at stv0299
+driver. Should not be used on newer drivers.
+
+It provides a non-standard method for selecting Diseqc voltage on the
+frontend, for Dish Network legacy switches.
+
+As support for this ioctl were added in 2004, this means that such
+dishes were already legacy in 2004.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+
+int ioctl(int fd, int request =
+:ref:`FE_DISHNETWORK_SEND_LEGACY_CMD <FE_DISHNETWORK_SEND_LEGACY_CMD>`,
+unsigned long cmd);

+ :header-rows: 0
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - unsigned long cmd
+
+ - sends the specified raw cmd to the dish via DISEqC.
+
+
+RETURN VALUE
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.

+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call returns a frontend event if available. If an event is
+not available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking
+or non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately
+with errno set to EWOULDBLOCK. In the former case, the call blocks until
+an event becomes available.

+DVB Audio Device
+################
+The DVB audio device controls the MPEG2 audio decoder of the DVB
+hardware. It can be accessed through ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/audio?``. Data
+types and and ioctl definitions can be accessed by including
+``linux/dvb/audio.h`` in your application.
+
+Please note that some DVB cards don’t have their own MPEG decoder, which
+results in the omission of the audio and video device.
+
+These ioctls were also used by V4L2 to control MPEG decoders implemented
+in V4L2. The use of these ioctls for that purpose has been made obsolete
+and proper V4L2 ioctls or controls have been created to replace that
+functionality.

+Audio Data Types
+****************
+
+This section describes the structures, data types and defines used when
+talking to the audio device.
+
+
+.. _audio-stream-source-t:
+
+audio_stream_source_t
+=====================
+
+The audio stream source is set through the AUDIO_SELECT_SOURCE call
+and can take the following values, depending on whether we are replaying
+from an internal (demux) or external (user write) source.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_SOURCE_DEMUX,
+ AUDIO_SOURCE_MEMORY
+ } audio_stream_source_t;
+
+AUDIO_SOURCE_DEMUX selects the demultiplexer (fed either by the
+frontend or the DVR device) as the source of the video stream. If
+AUDIO_SOURCE_MEMORY is selected the stream comes from the application
+through the ``write()`` system call.
+
+
+.. _audio-play-state-t:
+
+audio_play_state_t
+==================
+
+The following values can be returned by the AUDIO_GET_STATUS call
+representing the state of audio playback.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_STOPPED,
+ AUDIO_PLAYING,
+ AUDIO_PAUSED
+ } audio_play_state_t;
+
+
+.. _audio-channel-select-t:
+
+audio_channel_select_t
+======================
+
+The audio channel selected via AUDIO_CHANNEL_SELECT is determined by
+the following values.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ AUDIO_STEREO,
+ AUDIO_MONO_LEFT,
+ AUDIO_MONO_RIGHT,
+ AUDIO_MONO,
+ AUDIO_STEREO_SWAPPED
+ } audio_channel_select_t;
+
+
+.. _audio-status:
+
+struct audio_status
+===================
+
+The AUDIO_GET_STATUS call returns the following structure informing
+about various states of the playback operation.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef struct audio_status {
+ boolean AV_sync_state;
+ boolean mute_state;
+ audio_play_state_t play_state;
+ audio_stream_source_t stream_source;
+ audio_channel_select_t channel_select;
+ boolean bypass_mode;
+ audio_mixer_t mixer_state;
+ } audio_status_t;
+
+
+.. _audio-mixer:
+
+struct audio_mixer
+==================
+
+The following structure is used by the AUDIO_SET_MIXER call to set the
+audio volume.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef struct audio_mixer {
+ unsigned int volume_left;
+ unsigned int volume_right;
+ } audio_mixer_t;
+
+
+.. _audio_encodings:
+
+audio encodings
+===============
+
+A call to AUDIO_GET_CAPABILITIES returns an unsigned integer with the
+following bits set according to the hardwares capabilities.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_DTS 1
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_LPCM 2
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP1 4
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP2 8
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_MP3 16
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_AAC 32
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_OGG 64
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_SDDS 128
+ #define AUDIO_CAP_AC3 256
+
+
+.. _audio-karaoke:
+
+struct audio_karaoke
+====================
+
+The ioctl AUDIO_SET_KARAOKE uses the following format:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef
+ struct audio_karaoke {
+ int vocal1;
+ int vocal2;
+ int melody;
+ } audio_karaoke_t;
+
+If Vocal1 or Vocal2 are non-zero, they get mixed into left and right t
+at 70% each. If both, Vocal1 and Vocal2 are non-zero, Vocal1 gets mixed
+into the left channel and Vocal2 into the right channel at 100% each. Ff
+Melody is non-zero, the melody channel gets mixed into left and right.
+
+
+.. _audio-attributes-t:
+
+audio attributes
+================
+
+The following attributes can be set by a call to AUDIO_SET_ATTRIBUTES:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef uint16_t audio_attributes_t;
+ /* bits: descr. */
+ /* 15-13 audio coding mode (0=ac3, 2=mpeg1, 3=mpeg2ext, 4=LPCM, 6=DTS, */

+open()
+======
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This system call opens a named audio device (e.g.
+/dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0) for subsequent use. When an open() call has
+succeeded, the device will be ready for use. The significance of
+blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the documentation for
+functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the semantics
+of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later be
+put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
+of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in
+the Linux manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the Audio Device
+in O_RDWR mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will
+fail, and an error code will be returned. If the Audio Device is opened
+in O_RDONLY mode, the only ioctl call that can be used is
+AUDIO_GET_STATUS. All other call will return with an error code.

+open()
+======
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This system call opens a named ca device (e.g. /dev/ost/ca) for
+subsequent use.
+
+When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use. The
+significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
+documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not
+affect the semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in
+blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa)
+using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call. This is a standard
+system call, documented in the Linux manual page for fcntl. Only one
+user can open the CA Device in O_RDWR mode. All other attempts to open
+the device in this mode will fail, and an error code will be returned.

+======
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This system call, used with a device name of /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0,
+allocates a new filter and returns a handle which can be used for
+subsequent control of that filter. This call has to be made for each
+filter to be used, i.e. every returned file descriptor is a reference to
+a single filter. /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 is a logical device to be used
+for retrieving Transport Streams for digital video recording. When
+reading from this device a transport stream containing the packets from
+all PES filters set in the corresponding demux device
+(/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0) having the output set to DMX_OUT_TS_TAP. A
+recorded Transport Stream is replayed by writing to this device.
+
+The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
+documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not
+affect the semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in
+blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa)
+using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call.

+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call sets up a filter according to the filter and mask

+to wait for a section to be loaded. A value of 0 means that no timeout
+should be applied. Finally there is a flag field where it is possible to
+state whether a section should be CRC-checked, whether the filter should
+be a ”one-shot” filter, i.e. if the filtering operation should be
+stopped after the first section is received, and whether the filtering
+operation should be started immediately (without waiting for a
+DMX_START ioctl call). If a filter was previously set-up, this filter
+will be canceled, and the receive buffer will be flushed.

+
+.. _DMX_SET_BUFFER_SIZE:
+
+DMX_SET_BUFFER_SIZE
+===================
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call is used to set the size of the circular buffer used for
+filtered data. The default size is two maximum sized sections, i.e. if
+this function is not called a buffer size of 2 * 4096 bytes will be
+used.
+

+
+.. _DMX_GET_EVENT:
+
+DMX_GET_EVENT
+=============
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call returns an event if available. If an event is not
+available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking or
+non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately with
+errno set to EWOULDBLOCK. In the former case, the call blocks until an
+event becomes available.

+
+DMX_GET_STC
+===========
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl call returns the current value of the system time counter
+(which is driven by a PES filter of type DMX_PES_PCR). Some hardware
+supports more than one STC, so you must specify which one by setting the
+num field of stc before the ioctl (range 0...n). The result is returned
+in form of a ratio with a 64 bit numerator and a 32 bit denominator, so
+the real 90kHz STC value is stc->stc / stc->base .

+
+*******************
+frontend parameters
+*******************
+
+The kind of parameters passed to the frontend device for tuning depend
+on the kind of hardware you are using.
+
+The struct ``dvb_frontend_parameters`` uses an union with specific
+per-system parameters. However, as newer delivery systems required more
+data, the structure size weren't enough to fit, and just extending its
+size would break the existing applications. So, those parameters were
+replaced by the usage of
+:ref:`FE_GET_PROPERTY/FE_SET_PROPERTY <FE_GET_PROPERTY>`
+ioctl's. The new API is flexible enough to add new parameters to
+existing delivery systems, and to add newer delivery systems.
+
+So, newer applications should use
+:ref:`FE_GET_PROPERTY/FE_SET_PROPERTY <FE_GET_PROPERTY>`
+instead, in order to be able to support the newer System Delivery like
+DVB-S2, DVB-T2, DVB-C2, ISDB, etc.
+
+All kinds of parameters are combined as an union in the
+FrontendParameters structure:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct dvb_frontend_parameters {

+In the case of QPSK frontends the ``frequency`` field specifies the

+the local oscillator frequency (LOF) of the LNB. The intermediate
+frequency has to be specified in units of kHz. For QAM and OFDM
+frontends the ``frequency`` specifies the absolute frequency and is
+given in Hz.

+
+For satellite QPSK frontends you have to use the ``dvb_qpsk_parameters``

+.. _frontend-properties:
+
+DVB Frontend properties
+=======================
+
+Tuning into a Digital TV physical channel and starting decoding it
+requires changing a set of parameters, in order to control the tuner,
+the demodulator, the Linear Low-noise Amplifier (LNA) and to set the
+antenna subsystem via Satellite Equipment Control (SEC), on satellite
+systems. The actual parameters are specific to each particular digital
+TV standards, and may change as the digital TV specs evolves.
+
+In the past, the strategy used was to have a union with the parameters
+needed to tune for DVB-S, DVB-C, DVB-T and ATSC delivery systems grouped
+there. The problem is that, as the second generation standards appeared,
+those structs were not big enough to contain the additional parameters.
+Also, the union didn't have any space left to be expanded without
+breaking userspace. So, the decision was to deprecate the legacy
+union/struct based approach, in favor of a properties set approach.
+
+NOTE: on Linux DVB API version 3, setting a frontend were done via
+:ref:`struct dvb_frontend_parameters <dvb-frontend-parameters>`.
+This got replaced on version 5 (also called "S2API", as this API were
+added originally_enabled to provide support for DVB-S2), because the
+old API has a very limited support to new standards and new hardware.
+This section describes the new and recommended way to set the frontend,
+with suppports all digital TV delivery systems.
+
+Example: with the properties based approach, in order to set the tuner
+to a DVB-C channel at 651 kHz, modulated with 256-QAM, FEC 3/4 and
+symbol rate of 5.217 Mbauds, those properties should be sent to
+:ref:`FE_SET_PROPERTY <FE_GET_PROPERTY>` ioctl:
+
+- :ref:`DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM <DTV-DELIVERY-SYSTEM>` =
+ SYS_DVBC_ANNEX_A
+
+- :ref:`DTV_FREQUENCY <DTV-FREQUENCY>` = 651000000
+
+- :ref:`DTV_MODULATION <DTV-MODULATION>` = QAM_256
+
+- :ref:`DTV_INVERSION <DTV-INVERSION>` = INVERSION_AUTO
+
+- :ref:`DTV_SYMBOL_RATE <DTV-SYMBOL-RATE>` = 5217000
+
+- :ref:`DTV_INNER_FEC <DTV-INNER-FEC>` = FEC_3_4
+
+- :ref:`DTV_TUNE <DTV-TUNE>`
+
+The code that would do the above is:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <stdio.h>
+ #include <fcntl.h>
+ #include <sys/ioctl.h>
+ #include <linux/dvb/frontend.h>
+
+ static struct dtv_property props[] = {
+ { .cmd = DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM, .u.data = SYS_DVBC_ANNEX_A },
+ { .cmd = DTV_FREQUENCY, .u.data = 651000000 },
+ { .cmd = DTV_MODULATION, .u.data = QAM_256 },
+ { .cmd = DTV_INVERSION, .u.data = INVERSION_AUTO },
+ { .cmd = DTV_SYMBOL_RATE, .u.data = 5217000 },
+ { .cmd = DTV_INNER_FEC, .u.data = FEC_3_4 },
+ { .cmd = DTV_TUNE }
+ };
+
+ static struct dtv_properties dtv_prop = {
+ .num = 6, .props = props
+ };
+
+ int main(void)
+ {
+ int fd = open("/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0", O_RDWR);
+
+ if (!fd) {
+ perror ("open");
+ return -1;
+ }
+ if (ioctl(fd, FE_SET_PROPERTY, &dtv_prop) == -1) {
+ perror("ioctl");
+ return -1;
+ }
+ printf("Frontend set\\n");
+ return 0;
+ }
+
+NOTE: While it is possible to directly call the Kernel code like the
+above example, it is strongly recommended to use
+`libdvbv5 <https://linuxtv.org/docs/libdvbv5/index.html>`__, as it
+provides abstraction to work with the supported digital TV standards and
+provides methods for usual operations like program scanning and to
+read/write channel descriptor files.

+The program assumes that you are using a universal LNB and a standard
+DiSEqC switch with up to 4 addresses. Of course, you could build in some
+more checking if tuning was successful and maybe try to repeat the
+tuning process. Depending on the external hardware, i.e. LNB and DiSEqC
+switch, and weather conditions this may be necessary.

+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl is used to set the generation of the continuous 22kHz tone.
+This call requires read/write permissions.
+
+Usually, satellite antenna subsystems require that the digital TV device
+to send a 22kHz tone in order to select between high/low band on some

+
+NOTE: if more than one device is connected to the same antenna, setting

+
+NOTE: if more than one device is connected to the same antenna, setting

+
+If '1' ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_*`` values are assigned to the center segment
+and ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_SEGMENT_COUNT`` has to be '1'.
+
+If in addition ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'
+``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` represents whether this ISDB-Tsb channel

+
+DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING
+============================
+
+This field represents whether the other DTV_ISDBT_*-parameters are
+referring to an ISDB-T and an ISDB-Tsb channel. (See also
+``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``).
+
+Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO)
+

+.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SUBCHANNEL-ID:
+
+DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID
+==========================
+
+This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
+
+(Note of the author: This might not be the correct description of the
+``SUBCHANNEL-ID`` in all details, but it is my understanding of the
+technical background needed to program a device)
+
+An ISDB-Tsb channel (1 or 3 segments) can be broadcasted alone or in a
+set of connected ISDB-Tsb channels. In this set of channels every
+channel can be received independently. The number of connected ISDB-Tsb
+segment can vary, e.g. depending on the frequency spectrum bandwidth
+available.
+
+Example: Assume 8 ISDB-Tsb connected segments are broadcasted. The
+broadcaster has several possibilities to put those channels in the air:
+Assuming a normal 13-segment ISDB-T spectrum he can align the 8 segments
+from position 1-8 to 5-13 or anything in between.
+
+The underlying layer of segments are subchannels: each segment is
+consisting of several subchannels with a predefined IDs. A sub-channel
+is used to help the demodulator to synchronize on the channel.
+
+An ISDB-T channel is always centered over all sub-channels. As for the
+example above, in ISDB-Tsb it is no longer as simple as that.
+
+``The DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID`` parameter is used to give the
+sub-channel ID of the segment to be demodulated.
+
+Possible values: 0 .. 41, -1 (AUTO)
+
+
+.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-IDX:

+========================
+
+This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
+
+``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX`` gives the index of the segment to be
+demodulated for an ISDB-Tsb channel where several of them are
+transmitted in the connected manner.
+
+Possible values: 0 .. ``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` - 1
+
+Note: This value cannot be determined by an automatic channel search.
+
+
+.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-COUNT:
+
+DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT
+==========================
+
+This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
+
+``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` gives the total count of connected
+ISDB-Tsb channels.
+
+Possible values: 1 .. 13
+
+Note: This value cannot be determined by an automatic channel search.
+
+
+.. _isdb-hierq-layers:
+
+DTV-ISDBT-LAYER* parameters
+===========================
+
+ISDB-T channels can be coded hierarchically. As opposed to DVB-T in
+ISDB-T hierarchical layers can be decoded simultaneously. For that
+reason a ISDB-T demodulator has 3 Viterbi and 3 Reed-Solomon decoders.
+
+ISDB-T has 3 hierarchical layers which each can use a part of the
+available segments. The total number of segments over all layers has to
+13 in ISDB-T.
+
+There are 3 parameter sets, for Layers A, B and C.
+
+
+.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-ENABLED:
+
+DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED
+-----------------------
+
+Hierarchical reception in ISDB-T is achieved by enabling or disabling
+layers in the decoding process. Setting all bits of
+``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` to '1' forces all layers (if applicable) to
+be demodulated. This is the default.
+
+If the channel is in the partial reception mode
+(``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` = 1) the central segment can be decoded
+independently of the other 12 segments. In that mode layer A has to have
+a ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` of 1.
+
+In ISDB-Tsb only layer A is used, it can be 1 or 3 in ISDB-Tsb according
+to ``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``. ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` must be filled
+accordingly.
+
+Possible values: 0x1, 0x2, 0x4 (|-able)
+
+``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED[0:0]`` - layer A
+
+``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED[1:1]`` - layer B

+
+2) If ``DTV_TRANSMISSION_MODE`` is set the ``TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO``
+the hardware will try to find the correct FFT-size (if capable) and will
+use TMCC to fill in the missing parameters.
+
+3) DVB-T specifies 2K and 8K as valid sizes.
+

+=============
+
+DVB-S2, DVB-T2 and ISDB-S support the transmission of several streams on
+a single transport stream. This property enables the DVB driver to
+handle substream filtering, when supported by the hardware. By default,
+substream filtering is disabled.
+
+For DVB-S2 and DVB-T2, the valid substream id range is from 0 to 255.
+
+For ISDB, the valid substream id range is from 1 to 65535.
+
+To disable it, you should use the special macro NO_STREAM_ID_FILTER.
+
+Note: any value outside the id range also disables filtering.

+DTV_ENUM_DELSYS
+===============
+
+A Multi standard frontend needs to advertise the delivery systems
+provided. Applications need to enumerate the provided delivery systems,
+before using any other operation with the frontend. Prior to it's
+introduction, FE_GET_INFO was used to determine a frontend type. A
+frontend which provides more than a single delivery system,
+FE_GET_INFO doesn't help much. Applications which intends to use a
+multistandard frontend must enumerate the delivery systems associated
+with it, rather than trying to use FE_GET_INFO. In the case of a
+legacy frontend, the result is just the same as with FE_GET_INFO, but
+in a more structured format

+
+This ISDB-T/ISDB-Tsb API extension should reflect all information needed
+to tune any ISDB-T/ISDB-Tsb hardware. Of course it is possible that some
+very sophisticated devices won't need certain parameters to tune.
+
+The information given here should help application writers to know how
+to handle ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb hardware using the Linux DVB-API.
+
+The details given here about ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb are just enough to
+basically show the dependencies between the needed parameter values, but
+surely some information is left out. For more detailed information see
+the following documents:
+
+ARIB STD-B31 - "Transmission System for Digital Terrestrial Television
+Broadcasting" and
+
+ARIB TR-B14 - "Operational Guidelines for Digital Terrestrial Television
+Broadcasting".
+
+In order to understand the ISDB specific parameters, one has to have
+some knowledge the channel structure in ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb. I.e. it has
+to be known to the reader that an ISDB-T channel consists of 13
+segments, that it can have up to 3 layer sharing those segments, and

+It should be noted, however, that new OFDM delivery systems like ISDB
+can use different modulation types for each group of carriers. On such
+standards, up to 3 groups of statistics can be provided, and
+``dtv_property.stat.len`` is updated to reflect the "global" metrics,
+plus one metric per each carrier group (called "layer" on ISDB).
+
+So, in order to be consistent with other delivery systems, the first
+value at :ref:`dtv_property.stat.dtv_stats <dtv-stats>` array refers
+to the global metric. The other elements of the array represent each
+layer, starting from layer A(index 1), layer B (index 2) and so on.
+
+The number of filled elements are stored at ``dtv_property.stat.len``.
+
+Each element of the ``dtv_property.stat.dtv_stats`` array consists on
+two elements:
+
+- ``svalue`` or ``uvalue``, where ``svalue`` is for signed values of
+ the measure (dB measures) and ``uvalue`` is for unsigned values
+ (counters, relative scale)
+
+- ``scale`` - Scale for the value. It can be:
+
+ - ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - The parameter is supported by the
+ frontend, but it was not possible to collect it (could be a
+ transitory or permanent condition)
+
+ - ``FE_SCALE_DECIBEL`` - parameter is a signed value, measured in
+ 1/1000 dB
+
+ - ``FE_SCALE_RELATIVE`` - parameter is a unsigned value, where 0
+ means 0% and 65535 means 100%.
+
+ - ``FE_SCALE_COUNTER`` - parameter is a unsigned value that counts
+ the occurrence of an event, like bit error, block error, or lapsed
+ time.
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-SIGNAL-STRENGTH:
+
+DTV_STAT_SIGNAL_STRENGTH
+========================
+
+Indicates the signal strength level at the analog part of the tuner or
+of the demod.
+
+Possible scales for this metric are:
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - it failed to measure it, or the
+ measurement was not complete yet.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_DECIBEL`` - signal strength is in 0.001 dBm units, power
+ measured in miliwatts. This value is generally negative.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_RELATIVE`` - The frontend provides a 0% to 100%
+ measurement for power (actually, 0 to 65535).
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-CNR:
+
+DTV_STAT_CNR
+============
+
+Indicates the Signal to Noise ratio for the main carrier.
+
+Possible scales for this metric are:
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - it failed to measure it, or the
+ measurement was not complete yet.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_DECIBEL`` - Signal/Noise ratio is in 0.001 dB units.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_RELATIVE`` - The frontend provides a 0% to 100%
+ measurement for Signal/Noise (actually, 0 to 65535).
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-PRE-ERROR-BIT-COUNT:
+
+DTV_STAT_PRE_ERROR_BIT_COUNT
+============================
+
+Measures the number of bit errors before the forward error correction
+(FEC) on the inner coding block (before Viterbi, LDPC or other inner
+code).
+
+This measure is taken during the same interval as
+``DTV_STAT_PRE_TOTAL_BIT_COUNT``.
+
+In order to get the BER (Bit Error Rate) measurement, it should be
+divided by
+:ref:`DTV_STAT_PRE_TOTAL_BIT_COUNT <DTV-STAT-PRE-TOTAL-BIT-COUNT>`.
+
+This measurement is monotonically increased, as the frontend gets more
+bit count measurements. The frontend may reset it when a
+channel/transponder is tuned.
+
+Possible scales for this metric are:
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - it failed to measure it, or the
+ measurement was not complete yet.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_COUNTER`` - Number of error bits counted before the inner
+ coding.
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-PRE-TOTAL-BIT-COUNT:
+
+DTV_STAT_PRE_TOTAL_BIT_COUNT
+============================
+
+Measures the amount of bits received before the inner code block, during
+the same period as
+:ref:`DTV_STAT_PRE_ERROR_BIT_COUNT <DTV-STAT-PRE-ERROR-BIT-COUNT>`
+measurement was taken.
+
+It should be noted that this measurement can be smaller than the total
+amount of bits on the transport stream, as the frontend may need to
+manually restart the measurement, losing some data between each
+measurement interval.
+
+This measurement is monotonically increased, as the frontend gets more
+bit count measurements. The frontend may reset it when a
+channel/transponder is tuned.
+
+Possible scales for this metric are:
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - it failed to measure it, or the
+ measurement was not complete yet.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_COUNTER`` - Number of bits counted while measuring
+ :ref:`DTV_STAT_PRE_ERROR_BIT_COUNT <DTV-STAT-PRE-ERROR-BIT-COUNT>`.
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-POST-ERROR-BIT-COUNT:
+
+DTV_STAT_POST_ERROR_BIT_COUNT
+=============================
+
+Measures the number of bit errors after the forward error correction
+(FEC) done by inner code block (after Viterbi, LDPC or other inner
+code).
+
+This measure is taken during the same interval as
+``DTV_STAT_POST_TOTAL_BIT_COUNT``.
+
+In order to get the BER (Bit Error Rate) measurement, it should be

+measurement was taken.
+
+It should be noted that this measurement can be smaller than the total

+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-ERROR-BLOCK-COUNT:
+
+DTV_STAT_ERROR_BLOCK_COUNT
+==========================
+
+Measures the number of block errors after the outer forward error
+correction coding (after Reed-Solomon or other outer code).
+
+This measurement is monotonically increased, as the frontend gets more
+bit count measurements. The frontend may reset it when a
+channel/transponder is tuned.
+
+Possible scales for this metric are:
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE`` - it failed to measure it, or the
+ measurement was not complete yet.
+
+- ``FE_SCALE_COUNTER`` - Number of error blocks counted after the outer
+ coding.
+
+
+.. _DTV-STAT-TOTAL-BLOCK-COUNT:
+
+DTV-STAT_TOTAL_BLOCK_COUNT
+==========================
+
+Measures the total number of blocks received during the same period as
+:ref:`DTV_STAT_ERROR_BLOCK_COUNT <DTV-STAT-ERROR-BLOCK-COUNT>`
+measurement was taken.
+
+It can be used to calculate the PER indicator, by dividing

+DVB Frontend API
+################
+The DVB frontend API was designed to support three types of delivery
+systems:
+
+- Terrestrial systems: DVB-T, DVB-T2, ATSC, ATSC M/H, ISDB-T, DVB-H,
+ DTMB, CMMB
+
+- Cable systems: DVB-C Annex A/C, ClearQAM (DVB-C Annex B), ISDB-C
+
+- Satellite systems: DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB Turbo, ISDB-S, DSS
+
+The DVB frontend controls several sub-devices including:
+
+- Tuner
+
+- Digital TV demodulator
+
+- Low noise amplifier (LNA)
+
+- Satellite Equipment Control (SEC) hardware (only for Satellite).
+
+The frontend can be accessed through ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/frontend?``.
+Data types and ioctl definitions can be accessed by including
+``linux/dvb/frontend.h`` in your application.
+
+NOTE: Transmission via the internet (DVB-IP) is not yet handled by this
+API but a future extension is possible.
+
+On Satellite systems, the API support for the Satellite Equipment
+Control (SEC) allows to power control and to send/receive signals to
+control the antenna subsystem, selecting the polarization and choosing
+the Intermediate Frequency IF) of the Low Noise Block Converter Feed
+Horn (LNBf). It supports the DiSEqC and V-SEC protocols. The DiSEqC
+(digital SEC) specification is available at
+`Eutelsat <http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/4_5_5.html>`__.

+ Open flags. Access can either be ``O_RDWR`` or ``O_RDONLY``.
+

+
+ When the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag is given, the system calls may return
+ EAGAIN error code when no data is available or when the device

+
+ Other flags have no effect.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This system call opens a named frontend device
+(``/dev/dvb/adapter?/frontend?``) for subsequent use. Usually the first
+thing to do after a successful open is to find out the frontend type
+with :ref:`FE_GET_INFO <FE_GET_INFO>`.
+
+The device can be opened in read-only mode, which only allows monitoring
+of device status and statistics, or read/write mode, which allows any
+kind of use (e.g. performing tuning operations.)
+
+In a system with multiple front-ends, it is usually the case that
+multiple devices cannot be open in read/write mode simultaneously. As
+long as a front-end device is opened in read/write mode, other open()
+calls in read/write mode will either fail or block, depending on whether
+non-blocking or blocking mode was specified. A front-end device opened
+in blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice
+versa) using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call. This is a
+standard system call, documented in the Linux manual page for fcntl.
+When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use in
+the specified mode. This implies that the corresponding hardware is
+powered up, and that other front-ends may have been powered down to make
+that possible.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success :c:func:`open()` returns the new file descriptor. On error
+-1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately.
+Possible error codes are:
+
+EACCES
+ The caller has no permission to access the device.
+
+EBUSY
+ The the device driver is already in use.
+
+ENXIO
+ No device corresponding to this device special file exists.
+
+ENOMEM
+ Not enough kernel memory was available to complete the request.
+
+EMFILE
+ The process already has the maximum number of files open.
+
+ENFILE
+ The limit on the total number of files open on the system has been
+ reached.
+
+ENODEV
+ The device got removed.

+Introduction
+************
+
+
+.. _requisites:
+
+What you need to know
+=====================
+
+The reader of this document is required to have some knowledge in the
+area of digital video broadcasting (DVB) and should be familiar with
+part I of the MPEG2 specification ISO/IEC 13818 (aka ITU-T H.222), i.e
+you should know what a program/transport stream (PS/TS) is and what is
+meant by a packetized elementary stream (PES) or an I-frame.
+
+Various DVB standards documents are available from http://www.dvb.org
+and/or http://www.etsi.org.
+
+It is also necessary to know how to access unix/linux devices and how to
+use ioctl calls. This also includes the knowledge of C or C++.
+
+
+.. _history:
+
+History
+=======
+
+The first API for DVB cards we used at Convergence in late 1999 was an
+extension of the Video4Linux API which was primarily developed for frame
+grabber cards. As such it was not really well suited to be used for DVB
+cards and their new features like recording MPEG streams and filtering
+several section and PES data streams at the same time.
+
+In early 2000, we were approached by Nokia with a proposal for a new
+standard Linux DVB API. As a commitment to the development of terminals
+based on open standards, Nokia and Convergence made it available to all
+Linux developers and published it on https://linuxtv.org in September
+2000. Convergence is the maintainer of the Linux DVB API. Together with
+the LinuxTV community (i.e. you, the reader of this document), the Linux
+DVB API will be constantly reviewed and improved. With the Linux driver
+for the Siemens/Hauppauge DVB PCI card Convergence provides a first
+implementation of the Linux DVB API.
+
+

+
+Overview
+========
+
+
+.. _stb_components:
+
+.. figure:: intro_files/dvbstb.*
+ :alt: dvbstb.pdf / dvbstb.png
+ :align: center
+
+ Components of a DVB card/STB
+
+A DVB PCI card or DVB set-top-box (STB) usually consists of the
+following main hardware components:
+
+- Frontend consisting of tuner and DVB demodulator
+
+ Here the raw signal reaches the DVB hardware from a satellite dish or
+ antenna or directly from cable. The frontend down-converts and
+ demodulates this signal into an MPEG transport stream (TS). In case
+ of a satellite frontend, this includes a facility for satellite
+ equipment control (SEC), which allows control of LNB polarization,
+ multi feed switches or dish rotors.
+
+- Conditional Access (CA) hardware like CI adapters and smartcard slots
+
+ The complete TS is passed through the CA hardware. Programs to which
+ the user has access (controlled by the smart card) are decoded in
+ real time and re-inserted into the TS.
+
+- Demultiplexer which filters the incoming DVB stream
+
+ The demultiplexer splits the TS into its components like audio and
+ video streams. Besides usually several of such audio and video
+ streams it also contains data streams with information about the
+ programs offered in this or other streams of the same provider.
+
+- MPEG2 audio and video decoder
+
+ The main targets of the demultiplexer are the MPEG2 audio and video
+ decoders. After decoding they pass on the uncompressed audio and
+ video to the computer screen or (through a PAL/NTSC encoder) to a TV
+ set.
+
+:ref:`stb_components` shows a crude schematic of the control and data
+flow between those components.
+
+On a DVB PCI card not all of these have to be present since some
+functionality can be provided by the main CPU of the PC (e.g. MPEG
+picture and sound decoding) or is not needed (e.g. for data-only uses
+like “internet over satellite”). Also not every card or STB provides
+conditional access hardware.
+
+
+.. _dvb_devices:
+
+Linux DVB Devices
+=================
+
+The Linux DVB API lets you control these hardware components through
+currently six Unix-style character devices for video, audio, frontend,
+demux, CA and IP-over-DVB networking. The video and audio devices
+control the MPEG2 decoder hardware, the frontend device the tuner and
+the DVB demodulator. The demux device gives you control over the PES and
+section filters of the hardware. If the hardware does not support
+filtering these filters can be implemented in software. Finally, the CA
+device controls all the conditional access capabilities of the hardware.
+It can depend on the individual security requirements of the platform,
+if and how many of the CA functions are made available to the
+application through this device.
+
+All devices can be found in the ``/dev`` tree under ``/dev/dvb``. The
+individual devices are called:
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/audioM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/videoM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/frontendM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/netM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/demuxM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/dvrM``,
+
+- ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/caM``,
+
+where N enumerates the DVB PCI cards in a system starting from 0, and M
+enumerates the devices of each type within each adapter, starting
+from 0, too. We will omit the “ ``/dev/dvb/adapterN/``\ ” in the further
+discussion of these devices.
+
+More details about the data structures and function calls of all the
+devices are described in the following chapters.
+
+
+.. _include_files:
+
+API include files
+=================
+
+For each of the DVB devices a corresponding include file exists. The DVB
+API include files should be included in application sources with a
+partial path like:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/audio.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/ca.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/dmx.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/frontend.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/net.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/osd.h>
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/dvb/video.h>
+
+To enable applications to support different API version, an additional
+include file ``linux/dvb/version.h`` exists, which defines the constant
+``DVB_API_VERSION``. This document describes ``DVB_API_VERSION 5.10``.

+DVB Network API
+###############
+The DVB net device controls the mapping of data packages that are part
+of a transport stream to be mapped into a virtual network interface,
+visible through the standard Linux network protocol stack.
+
+Currently, two encapsulations are supported:
+
+- `Multi Protocol Encapsulation (MPE) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiprotocol_Encapsulation>`__
+
+- `Ultra Lightweight Encapsulation (ULE) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unidirectional_Lightweight_Encapsulation>`__
+
+In order to create the Linux virtual network interfaces, an application
+needs to tell to the Kernel what are the PIDs and the encapsulation
+types that are present on the transport stream. This is done through
+``/dev/dvb/adapter?/net?`` device node. The data will be available via
+virtual ``dvb?_?`` network interfaces, and will be controlled/routed via
+the standard ip tools (like ip, route, netstat, ifconfig, etc).
+
+Data types and and ioctl definitions are defined via ``linux/dvb/net.h``
+header.

+################
+DVB Video Device
+################
+The DVB video device controls the MPEG2 video decoder of the DVB
+hardware. It can be accessed through **/dev/dvb/adapter0/video0**. Data
+types and and ioctl definitions can be accessed by including
+**linux/dvb/video.h** in your application.
+
+Note that the DVB video device only controls decoding of the MPEG video
+stream, not its presentation on the TV or computer screen. On PCs this
+is typically handled by an associated video4linux device, e.g.
+**/dev/video**, which allows scaling and defining output windows.
+
+Some DVB cards don’t have their own MPEG decoder, which results in the
+omission of the audio and video device as well as the video4linux
+device.
+
+The ioctls that deal with SPUs (sub picture units) and navigation
+packets are only supported on some MPEG decoders made for DVD playback.
+
+These ioctls were also used by V4L2 to control MPEG decoders implemented
+in V4L2. The use of these ioctls for that purpose has been made obsolete
+and proper V4L2 ioctls or controls have been created to replace that
+functionality.

+open()
+======
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This system call opens a named video device (e.g.
+/dev/dvb/adapter0/video0) for subsequent use.
+
+When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use. The
+significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
+documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not
+affect the semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in
+blocking mode can later be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa)
+using the F_SETFL command of the fcntl system call. This is a standard
+system call, documented in the Linux manual page for fcntl. Only one
+user can open the Video Device in O_RDWR mode. All other attempts to
+open the device in this mode will fail, and an error-code will be
+returned. If the Video Device is opened in O_RDONLY mode, the only
+ioctl call that can be used is VIDEO_GET_STATUS. All other call will
+return an error code.

+
+VIDEO_GET_EVENT
+===============
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+This ioctl is for DVB devices only. To get events from a V4L2 decoder
+use the V4L2 :ref:`VIDIOC_DQEVENT <vidioc-dqevent>` ioctl instead.
+
+This ioctl call returns an event of type video_event if available. If
+an event is not available, the behavior depends on whether the device is
+in blocking or non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails
+immediately with errno set to EWOULDBLOCK. In the former case, the call
+blocks until an event becomes available. The standard Linux poll()
+and/or select() system calls can be used with the device file descriptor
+to watch for new events. For select(), the file descriptor should be
+included in the exceptfds argument, and for poll(), POLLPRI should be
+specified as the wake-up condition. Read-only permissions are sufficient
+for this ioctl call.

+Video Data Types
+****************
+
+
+.. _video-format-t:
+
+video_format_t
+==============
+
+The ``video_format_t`` data type defined by
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ VIDEO_FORMAT_4_3, /* Select 4:3 format */
+ VIDEO_FORMAT_16_9, /* Select 16:9 format. */
+ VIDEO_FORMAT_221_1 /* 2.21:1 */
+ } video_format_t;
+
+is used in the VIDEO_SET_FORMAT function (??) to tell the driver which
+aspect ratio the output hardware (e.g. TV) has. It is also used in the
+data structures video_status (??) returned by VIDEO_GET_STATUS (??)
+and video_event (??) returned by VIDEO_GET_EVENT (??) which report
+about the display format of the current video stream.
+
+
+.. _video-displayformat-t:
+
+video_displayformat_t
+=====================
+
+In case the display format of the video stream and of the display
+hardware differ the application has to specify how to handle the
+cropping of the picture. This can be done using the
+VIDEO_SET_DISPLAY_FORMAT call (??) which accepts
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ VIDEO_PAN_SCAN, /* use pan and scan format */
+ VIDEO_LETTER_BOX, /* use letterbox format */
+ VIDEO_CENTER_CUT_OUT /* use center cut out format */
+ } video_displayformat_t;
+
+as argument.
+
+
+.. _video-stream-source-t:
+
+video_stream_source_t
+=====================
+
+The video stream source is set through the VIDEO_SELECT_SOURCE call
+and can take the following values, depending on whether we are replaying
+from an internal (demuxer) or external (user write) source.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ VIDEO_SOURCE_DEMUX, /* Select the demux as the main source */
+ VIDEO_SOURCE_MEMORY /* If this source is selected, the stream
+ comes from the user through the write
+ system call */
+ } video_stream_source_t;
+
+VIDEO_SOURCE_DEMUX selects the demultiplexer (fed either by the
+frontend or the DVR device) as the source of the video stream. If
+VIDEO_SOURCE_MEMORY is selected the stream comes from the application
+through the **write()** system call.
+
+
+.. _video-play-state-t:
+
+video_play_state_t
+==================
+
+The following values can be returned by the VIDEO_GET_STATUS call
+representing the state of video playback.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ VIDEO_STOPPED, /* Video is stopped */
+ VIDEO_PLAYING, /* Video is currently playing */
+ VIDEO_FREEZED /* Video is freezed */
+ } video_play_state_t;
+
+
+.. _video-command:
+
+struct video_command
+====================
+
+The structure must be zeroed before use by the application This ensures
+it can be extended safely in the future.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct video_command {
+ __u32 cmd;
+ __u32 flags;
+ union {
+ struct {
+ __u64 pts;
+ } stop;
+
+ struct {
+ /* 0 or 1000 specifies normal speed,
+ 1 specifies forward single stepping,
+ -1 specifies backward single stepping,
+ >>1: playback at speed/1000 of the normal speed,
+ <-1: reverse playback at (-speed/1000) of the normal speed. */
+ __s32 speed;
+ __u32 format;
+ } play;
+
+ struct {
+ __u32 data[16];
+ } raw;
+ };
+ };
+
+
+.. _video-size-t:
+
+video_size_t
+============
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef struct {
+ int w;
+ int h;
+ video_format_t aspect_ratio;
+ } video_size_t;
+
+
+.. _video-event:
+
+struct video_event
+==================
+
+The following is the structure of a video event as it is returned by the
+VIDEO_GET_EVENT call.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct video_event {
+ __s32 type;
+ #define VIDEO_EVENT_SIZE_CHANGED 1
+ #define VIDEO_EVENT_FRAME_RATE_CHANGED 2
+ #define VIDEO_EVENT_DECODER_STOPPED 3
+ #define VIDEO_EVENT_VSYNC 4
+ __kernel_time_t timestamp;
+ union {
+ video_size_t size;
+ unsigned int frame_rate; /* in frames per 1000sec */
+ unsigned char vsync_field; /* unknown/odd/even/progressive */
+ } u;
+ };
+
+
+.. _video-status:
+
+struct video_status
+===================
+
+The VIDEO_GET_STATUS call returns the following structure informing
+about various states of the playback operation.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct video_status {
+ int video_blank; /* blank video on freeze? */
+ video_play_state_t play_state; /* current state of playback */
+ video_stream_source_t stream_source; /* current source (demux/memory) */
+ video_format_t video_format; /* current aspect ratio of stream */
+ video_displayformat_t display_format;/* selected cropping mode */
+ };
+
+If video_blank is set video will be blanked out if the channel is
+changed or if playback is stopped. Otherwise, the last picture will be
+displayed. play_state indicates if the video is currently frozen,
+stopped, or being played back. The stream_source corresponds to the
+seleted source for the video stream. It can come either from the
+demultiplexer or from memory. The video_format indicates the aspect
+ratio (one of 4:3 or 16:9) of the currently played video stream.
+Finally, display_format corresponds to the selected cropping mode in
+case the source video format is not the same as the format of the output
+device.
+
+
+.. _video-still-picture:
+
+struct video_still_picture
+==========================
+
+An I-frame displayed via the VIDEO_STILLPICTURE call is passed on
+within the following structure.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ /* pointer to and size of a single iframe in memory */
+ struct video_still_picture {
+ char *iFrame; /* pointer to a single iframe in memory */
+ int32_t size;
+ };
+
+
+.. _video_caps:
+
+video capabilities
+==================
+
+A call to VIDEO_GET_CAPABILITIES returns an unsigned integer with the
+following bits set according to the hardwares capabilities.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ /* bit definitions for capabilities: */
+ /* can the hardware decode MPEG1 and/or MPEG2? */
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_MPEG1 1
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_MPEG2 2
+ /* can you send a system and/or program stream to video device?
+ (you still have to open the video and the audio device but only
+ send the stream to the video device) */
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_SYS 4
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_PROG 8
+ /* can the driver also handle SPU, NAVI and CSS encoded data?
+ (CSS API is not present yet) */
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_SPU 16
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_NAVI 32
+ #define VIDEO_CAP_CSS 64
+
+
+.. _video-system:
+
+video_system_t
+==============
+
+A call to VIDEO_SET_SYSTEM sets the desired video system for TV
+output. The following system types can be set:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef enum {
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PAL,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_NTSC,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PALN,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PALNc,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PALM,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_NTSC60,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PAL60,
+ VIDEO_SYSTEM_PALM60
+ } video_system_t;
+
+
+.. _video-highlight:
+
+struct video_highlight
+======================
+
+Calling the ioctl VIDEO_SET_HIGHLIGHTS posts the SPU highlight
+information. The call expects the following format for that information:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef
+ struct video_highlight {
+ boolean active; /* 1=show highlight, 0=hide highlight */
+ uint8_t contrast1; /* 7- 4 Pattern pixel contrast */
+ /* 3- 0 Background pixel contrast */
+ uint8_t contrast2; /* 7- 4 Emphasis pixel-2 contrast */
+ /* 3- 0 Emphasis pixel-1 contrast */
+ uint8_t color1; /* 7- 4 Pattern pixel color */
+ /* 3- 0 Background pixel color */
+ uint8_t color2; /* 7- 4 Emphasis pixel-2 color */
+ /* 3- 0 Emphasis pixel-1 color */
+ uint32_t ypos; /* 23-22 auto action mode */
+ /* 21-12 start y */
+ /* 9- 0 end y */
+ uint32_t xpos; /* 23-22 button color number */
+ /* 21-12 start x */

+.. _Remote_controllers_Intro:
+
+************
+Introduction
+************
+
+Currently, most analog and digital devices have a Infrared input for
+remote controllers. Each manufacturer has their own type of control. It
+is not rare for the same manufacturer to ship different types of
+controls, depending on the device.
+
+A Remote Controller interface is mapped as a normal evdev/input
+interface, just like a keyboard or a mouse. So, it uses all ioctls
+already defined for any other input devices.
+
+However, remove controllers are more flexible than a normal input
+device, as the IR receiver (and/or transmitter) can be used in
+conjunction with a wide variety of different IR remotes.
+
+In order to allow flexibility, the Remote Controller subsystem allows
+controlling the RC-specific attributes via
+:ref:`the sysfs class nodes <remote_controllers_sysfs_nodes>`.

+Remote controller tables
+************************
+
+Unfortunately, for several years, there was no effort to create uniform
+IR keycodes for different devices. This caused the same IR keyname to be
+mapped completely differently on different IR devices. This resulted
+that the same IR keyname to be mapped completely different on different
+IR's. Due to that, V4L2 API now specifies a standard for mapping Media
+keys on IR.
+
+This standard should be used by both V4L/DVB drivers and userspace
+applications
+
+The modules register the remote as keyboard within the linux input
+layer. This means that the IR key strokes will look like normal keyboard
+key strokes (if CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD is enabled). Using the event
+devices (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV) it is possible for applications to access
+the remote via /dev/input/event devices.

+********************
+Application Priority
+********************
+
+When multiple applications share a device it may be desirable to assign
+them different priorities. Contrary to the traditional "rm -rf /" school
+of thought a video recording application could for example block other
+applications from changing video controls or switching the current TV
+channel. Another objective is to permit low priority applications
+working in background, which can be preempted by user controlled
+applications and automatically regain control of the device at a later
+time.
+
+Since these features cannot be implemented entirely in user space V4L2
+defines the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_PRIORITY <vidioc-g-priority>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY <vidioc-g-priority>` ioctls to request and
+query the access priority associate with a file descriptor. Opening a
+device assigns a medium priority, compatible with earlier versions of
+V4L2 and drivers not supporting these ioctls. Applications requiring a
+different priority will usually call ``VIDIOC_S_PRIORITY`` after
+verifying the device with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl.
+
+Ioctls changing driver properties, such as
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>`, return an EBUSY error code
+after another application obtained higher priority.

+
+************************
+Audio Inputs and Outputs
+************************
+
+Audio inputs and outputs are physical connectors of a device. Video
+capture devices have inputs, output devices have outputs, zero or more
+each. Radio devices have no audio inputs or outputs. They have exactly
+one tuner which in fact *is* an audio source, but this API associates
+tuners with video inputs or outputs only, and radio devices have none of
+these. [1]_ A connector on a TV card to loop back the received audio
+signal to a sound card is not considered an audio output.
+
+Audio and video inputs and outputs are associated. Selecting a video
+source also selects an audio source. This is most evident when the video
+and audio source is a tuner. Further audio connectors can combine with
+more than one video input or output. Assumed two composite video inputs
+and two audio inputs exist, there may be up to four valid combinations.
+The relation of video and audio connectors is defined in the
+``audioset`` field of the respective struct
+:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` or struct
+:ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>`, where each bit represents the index
+number, starting at zero, of one audio input or output.
+
+To learn about the number and attributes of the available inputs and
+outputs applications can enumerate them with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMAUDIO <vidioc-enumaudio>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMAUDOUT <vidioc-enumaudioout>` ioctl, respectively.
+The struct :ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` returned by the
+``VIDIOC_ENUMAUDIO`` ioctl also contains signal status information
+applicable when the current audio input is queried.
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDOUT <vidioc-g-audioout>` ioctls report the current
+audio input and output, respectively. Note that, unlike
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_OUTPUT <vidioc-g-output>` these ioctls return a
+structure as ``VIDIOC_ENUMAUDIO`` and ``VIDIOC_ENUMAUDOUT`` do, not just
+an index.
+
+To select an audio input and change its properties applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` ioctl. To select an audio
+output (which presently has no changeable properties) applications call
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_AUDOUT <vidioc-g-audioout>` ioctl.
+
+Drivers must implement all audio input ioctls when the device has
+multiple selectable audio inputs, all audio output ioctls when the
+device has multiple selectable audio outputs. When the device has any
+audio inputs or outputs the driver must set the ``V4L2_CAP_AUDIO`` flag
+in the struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct v4l2_audio audio;
+
+ memset(&audio, 0, sizeof(audio));
+
+ if (-1 == ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_G_AUDIO, &audio)) {
+ perror("VIDIOC_G_AUDIO");
+ exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+ }
+
+ printf("Current input: %s\\n", audio.name);
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct v4l2_audio audio;
+
+ memset(&audio, 0, sizeof(audio)); /* clear audio.mode, audio.reserved */
+
+ audio.index = 0;
+
+ if (-1 == ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_S_AUDIO, &audio)) {
+ perror("VIDIOC_S_AUDIO");
+ exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+ }
+
+.. [1]
+ Actually struct :ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` ought to have a
+ ``tuner`` field like struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`, not
+ only making the API more consistent but also permitting radio devices
+ with multiple tuners.

+*******
+Buffers
+*******
+
+A buffer contains data exchanged by application and driver using one of
+the Streaming I/O methods. In the multi-planar API, the data is held in
+planes, while the buffer structure acts as a container for the planes.
+Only pointers to buffers (planes) are exchanged, the data itself is not
+copied. These pointers, together with meta-information like timestamps
+or field parity, are stored in a struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer`,
+argument to the :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. In the multi-planar API,
+some plane-specific members of struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer`,
+such as pointers and sizes for each plane, are stored in struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_plane` instead. In that case, struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer` contains an array of plane structures.
+
+Dequeued video buffers come with timestamps. The driver decides at which
+part of the frame and with which clock the timestamp is taken. Please
+see flags in the masks ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_MASK`` and
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK`` in :ref:`buffer-flags`. These flags
+are always valid and constant across all buffers during the whole video
+stream. Changes in these flags may take place as a side effect of
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_OUTPUT <vidioc-g-output>` however. The
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_COPY`` timestamp type which is used by e.g. on
+mem-to-mem devices is an exception to the rule: the timestamp source
+flags are copied from the OUTPUT video buffer to the CAPTURE video
+buffer.

+
+ - ``bytesused``
+
+ -
+ - The number of bytes occupied by the data in the buffer. It depends
+ on the negotiated data format and may change with each buffer for
+ compressed variable size data like JPEG images. Drivers must set
+ this field when ``type`` refers to a capture stream, applications
+ when it refers to an output stream. If the application sets this
+ to 0 for an output stream, then ``bytesused`` will be set to the
+ size of the buffer (see the ``length`` field of this struct) by
+ the driver. For multiplanar formats this field is ignored and the
+ ``planes`` pointer is used instead.
+

+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``field``
+
+ -
+ - Indicates the field order of the image in the buffer, see
+ :ref:`v4l2-field`. This field is not used when the buffer
+ contains VBI data. Drivers must set it when ``type`` refers to a
+ capture stream, applications when it refers to an output stream.
+
+ - .. row 6
+
+ - struct timeval
+
+ - ``timestamp``
+
+ -
+ - For capture streams this is time when the first data byte was
+ captured, as returned by the :c:func:`clock_gettime()` function
+ for the relevant clock id; see ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_*`` in
+ :ref:`buffer-flags`. For output streams the driver stores the
+ time at which the last data byte was actually sent out in the
+ ``timestamp`` field. This permits applications to monitor the
+ drift between the video and system clock. For output streams that
+ use ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_COPY`` the application has to fill
+ in the timestamp which will be copied by the driver to the capture
+ stream.
+

+ - struct :ref:`v4l2_timecode <v4l2-timecode>`
+
+ - ``timecode``
+
+ -
+ - When ``type`` is ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` and the
+ ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMECODE`` flag is set in ``flags``, this
+ structure contains a frame timecode. In
+ :ref:`V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE <v4l2-field>` mode the top and
+ bottom field contain the same timecode. Timecodes are intended to
+ help video editing and are typically recorded on video tapes, but
+ also embedded in compressed formats like MPEG. This field is
+ independent of the ``timestamp`` and ``sequence`` fields.
+
+ - .. row 8
+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``sequence``
+
+ -
+ - Set by the driver, counting the frames (not fields!) in sequence.

+
+ - .. row 9
+
+ - :cspan:`3`
+
+ In :ref:`V4L2_FIELD_ALTERNATE <v4l2-field>` mode the top and
+ bottom field have the same sequence number. The count starts at
+ zero and includes dropped or repeated frames. A dropped frame was
+ received by an input device but could not be stored due to lack of
+ free buffer space. A repeated frame was displayed again by an
+ output device because the application did not pass new data in

+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_PREPARED``

+
+ - .. row 11
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN``
+
+ - 0x00001000
+
+ - Caches do not have to be cleaned for this buffer. Typically

+ this buffer has not been created by the CPU but by some
+ DMA-capable unit, in which case caches have not been used.
+
+ - .. row 12
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST``
+
+ - 0x00100000
+
+ - Last buffer produced by the hardware. mem2mem codec drivers set
+ this flag on the capture queue for the last buffer when the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` or
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl is called. Due to
+ hardware limitations, the last buffer may be empty. In this case
+ the driver will set the ``bytesused`` field to 0, regardless of

+
+ - .. row 14
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_UNKNOWN``
+
+ - 0x00000000
+
+ - Unknown timestamp type. This type is used by drivers before Linux
+ 3.9 and may be either monotonic (see below) or realtime (wall
+ clock). Monotonic clock has been favoured in embedded systems
+ whereas most of the drivers use the realtime clock. Either kinds
+ of timestamps are available in user space via
+ :c:func:`clock_gettime(2)` using clock IDs ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC``
+ and ``CLOCK_REALTIME``, respectively.
+
+ - .. row 15
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_MONOTONIC``
+
+ - 0x00002000
+
+ - The buffer timestamp has been taken from the ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC``

+ - .. row 17
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK``
+
+ - 0x00070000
+
+ - Mask for timestamp sources below. The timestamp source defines the
+ point of time the timestamp is taken in relation to the frame.
+ Logical 'and' operation between the ``flags`` field and
+ ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK`` produces the value of the
+ timestamp source. Applications must set the timestamp source when
+ ``type`` refers to an output stream and

+
+ - .. row 18
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_EOF``
+
+ - 0x00000000
+
+ - End Of Frame. The buffer timestamp has been taken when the last
+ pixel of the frame has been received or the last pixel of the
+ frame has been transmitted. In practice, software generated
+ timestamps will typically be read from the clock a small amount of
+ time after the last pixel has been received or transmitten,
+ depending on the system and other activity in it.
+
+ - .. row 19
+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_SOE``
+
+ - 0x00010000

+
+***********
+Colorspaces
+***********
+
+'Color' is a very complex concept and depends on physics, chemistry and
+biology. Just because you have three numbers that describe the 'red',
+'green' and 'blue' components of the color of a pixel does not mean that
+you can accurately display that color. A colorspace defines what it
+actually *means* to have an RGB value of e.g. (255, 0, 0). That is,
+which color should be reproduced on the screen in a perfectly calibrated
+environment.
+
+In order to do that we first need to have a good definition of color,
+i.e. some way to uniquely and unambiguously define a color so that
+someone else can reproduce it. Human color vision is trichromatic since
+the human eye has color receptors that are sensitive to three different
+wavelengths of light. Hence the need to use three numbers to describe
+color. Be glad you are not a mantis shrimp as those are sensitive to 12
+different wavelengths, so instead of RGB we would be using the
+ABCDEFGHIJKL colorspace...
+
+Color exists only in the eye and brain and is the result of how strongly
+color receptors are stimulated. This is based on the Spectral Power
+Distribution (SPD) which is a graph showing the intensity (radiant
+power) of the light at wavelengths covering the visible spectrum as it
+enters the eye. The science of colorimetry is about the relationship
+between the SPD and color as perceived by the human brain.
+
+Since the human eye has only three color receptors it is perfectly
+possible that different SPDs will result in the same stimulation of
+those receptors and are perceived as the same color, even though the SPD
+of the light is different.
+
+In the 1920s experiments were devised to determine the relationship
+between SPDs and the perceived color and that resulted in the CIE 1931
+standard that defines spectral weighting functions that model the
+perception of color. Specifically that standard defines functions that
+can take an SPD and calculate the stimulus for each color receptor.
+After some further mathematical transforms these stimuli are known as
+the *CIE XYZ tristimulus* values and these X, Y and Z values describe a
+color as perceived by a human unambiguously. These X, Y and Z values are
+all in the range [0…1].
+
+The Y value in the CIE XYZ colorspace corresponds to luminance. Often
+the CIE XYZ colorspace is transformed to the normalized CIE xyY
+colorspace:
+
+x = X / (X + Y + Z)
+
+y = Y / (X + Y + Z)
+
+The x and y values are the chromaticity coordinates and can be used to
+define a color without the luminance component Y. It is very confusing
+to have such similar names for these colorspaces. Just be aware that if
+colors are specified with lower case 'x' and 'y', then the CIE xyY
+colorspace is used. Upper case 'X' and 'Y' refer to the CIE XYZ
+colorspace. Also, y has nothing to do with luminance. Together x and y
+specify a color, and Y the luminance. That is really all you need to
+remember from a practical point of view. At the end of this section you
+will find reading resources that go into much more detail if you are
+interested.
+
+A monitor or TV will reproduce colors by emitting light at three
+different wavelengths, the combination of which will stimulate the color
+receptors in the eye and thus cause the perception of color.
+Historically these wavelengths were defined by the red, green and blue
+phosphors used in the displays. These *color primaries* are part of what
+defines a colorspace.
+
+Different display devices will have different primaries and some
+primaries are more suitable for some display technologies than others.
+This has resulted in a variety of colorspaces that are used for
+different display technologies or uses. To define a colorspace you need
+to define the three color primaries (these are typically defined as x, y
+chromaticity coordinates from the CIE xyY colorspace) but also the white
+reference: that is the color obtained when all three primaries are at
+maximum power. This determines the relative power or energy of the
+primaries. This is usually chosen to be close to daylight which has been
+defined as the CIE D65 Illuminant.
+
+To recapitulate: the CIE XYZ colorspace uniquely identifies colors.
+Other colorspaces are defined by three chromaticity coordinates defined
+in the CIE xyY colorspace. Based on those a 3x3 matrix can be
+constructed that transforms CIE XYZ colors to colors in the new
+colorspace.
+
+Both the CIE XYZ and the RGB colorspace that are derived from the
+specific chromaticity primaries are linear colorspaces. But neither the
+eye, nor display technology is linear. Doubling the values of all
+components in the linear colorspace will not be perceived as twice the
+intensity of the color. So each colorspace also defines a transfer
+function that takes a linear color component value and transforms it to
+the non-linear component value, which is a closer match to the
+non-linear performance of both the eye and displays. Linear component
+values are denoted RGB, non-linear are denoted as R'G'B'. In general
+colors used in graphics are all R'G'B', except in openGL which uses
+linear RGB. Special care should be taken when dealing with openGL to
+provide linear RGB colors or to use the built-in openGL support to apply
+the inverse transfer function.
+
+The final piece that defines a colorspace is a function that transforms
+non-linear R'G'B' to non-linear Y'CbCr. This function is determined by
+the so-called luma coefficients. There may be multiple possible Y'CbCr
+encodings allowed for the same colorspace. Many encodings of color
+prefer to use luma (Y') and chroma (CbCr) instead of R'G'B'. Since the
+human eye is more sensitive to differences in luminance than in color
+this encoding allows one to reduce the amount of color information
+compared to the luma data. Note that the luma (Y') is unrelated to the Y
+in the CIE XYZ colorspace. Also note that Y'CbCr is often called YCbCr
+or YUV even though these are strictly speaking wrong.
+
+Sometimes people confuse Y'CbCr as being a colorspace. This is not
+correct, it is just an encoding of an R'G'B' color into luma and chroma
+values. The underlying colorspace that is associated with the R'G'B'
+color is also associated with the Y'CbCr color.
+
+The final step is how the RGB, R'G'B' or Y'CbCr values are quantized.
+The CIE XYZ colorspace where X, Y and Z are in the range [0…1] describes
+all colors that humans can perceive, but the transform to another
+colorspace will produce colors that are outside the [0…1] range. Once
+clamped to the [0…1] range those colors can no longer be reproduced in
+that colorspace. This clamping is what reduces the extent or gamut of
+the colorspace. How the range of [0…1] is translated to integer values
+in the range of [0…255] (or higher, depending on the color depth) is
+called the quantization. This is *not* part of the colorspace
+definition. In practice RGB or R'G'B' values are full range, i.e. they
+use the full [0…255] range. Y'CbCr values on the other hand are limited
+range with Y' using [16…235] and Cb and Cr using [16…240].
+
+Unfortunately, in some cases limited range RGB is also used where the
+components use the range [16…235]. And full range Y'CbCr also exists
+using the [0…255] range.
+
+In order to correctly interpret a color you need to know the
+quantization range, whether it is R'G'B' or Y'CbCr, the used Y'CbCr
+encoding and the colorspace. From that information you can calculate the
+corresponding CIE XYZ color and map that again to whatever colorspace
+your display device uses.
+
+The colorspace definition itself consists of the three chromaticity
+primaries, the white reference chromaticity, a transfer function and the
+luma coefficients needed to transform R'G'B' to Y'CbCr. While some
+colorspace standards correctly define all four, quite often the
+colorspace standard only defines some, and you have to rely on other
+standards for the missing pieces. The fact that colorspaces are often a
+mix of different standards also led to very confusing naming conventions
+where the name of a standard was used to name a colorspace when in fact
+that standard was part of various other colorspaces as well.
+
+If you want to read more about colors and colorspaces, then the
+following resources are useful: :ref:`poynton` is a good practical
+book for video engineers, :ref:`colimg` has a much broader scope and
+describes many more aspects of color (physics, chemistry, biology,
+etc.). The
+`http://www.brucelindbloom.com <http://www.brucelindbloom.com>`__
+website is an excellent resource, especially with respect to the
+mathematics behind colorspace conversions. The wikipedia
+`CIE 1931 colorspace <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_space#CIE_xy_chromaticity_diagram_and_the_CIE_xyY_color_space>`__
+article is also very useful.

+Common API Elements
+###################
+Programming a V4L2 device consists of these steps:
+
+- Opening the device
+
+- Changing device properties, selecting a video and audio input, video
+ standard, picture brightness a. o.
+
+- Negotiating a data format
+
+- Negotiating an input/output method
+
+- The actual input/output loop
+
+- Closing the device
+
+In practice most steps are optional and can be executed out of order. It
+depends on the V4L2 device type, you can read about the details in
+:ref:`devices`. In this chapter we will discuss the basic concepts
+applicable to all devices.

+.. _control:
+
+*************
+User Controls
+*************
+
+Devices typically have a number of user-settable controls such as
+brightness, saturation and so on, which would be presented to the user
+on a graphical user interface. But, different devices will have
+different controls available, and furthermore, the range of possible
+values, and the default value will vary from device to device. The
+control ioctls provide the information and a mechanism to create a nice
+user interface for these controls that will work correctly with any
+device.
+
+All controls are accessed using an ID value. V4L2 defines several IDs
+for specific purposes. Drivers can also implement their own custom
+controls using ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` [1]_ and higher values. The
+pre-defined control IDs have the prefix ``V4L2_CID_``, and are listed in
+:ref:`control-id`. The ID is used when querying the attributes of a
+control, and when getting or setting the current value.
+
+Generally applications should present controls to the user without
+assumptions about their purpose. Each control comes with a name string
+the user is supposed to understand. When the purpose is non-intuitive
+the driver writer should provide a user manual, a user interface plug-in
+or a driver specific panel application. Predefined IDs were introduced
+to change a few controls programmatically, for example to mute a device
+during a channel switch.
+
+Drivers may enumerate different controls after switching the current
+video input or output, tuner or modulator, or audio input or output.
+Different in the sense of other bounds, another default and current
+value, step size or other menu items. A control with a certain *custom*
+ID can also change name and type.
+
+If a control is not applicable to the current configuration of the
+device (for example, it doesn't apply to the current video input)
+drivers set the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_INACTIVE`` flag.
+
+Control values are stored globally, they do not change when switching
+except to stay within the reported bounds. They also do not change e. g.
+when the device is opened or closed, when the tuner radio frequency is
+changed or generally never without application request.
+
+V4L2 specifies an event mechanism to notify applications when controls
+change value (see
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT <vidioc-subscribe-event>`, event
+``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL``), panel applications might want to make use of that
+in order to always reflect the correct control value.
+
+All controls use machine endianness.
+
+
+.. _control-id:
+
+Control IDs
+===========
+
+``V4L2_CID_BASE``
+ First predefined ID, equal to ``V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS``.
+
+``V4L2_CID_USER_BASE``
+ Synonym of ``V4L2_CID_BASE``.
+
+``V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS`` ``(integer)``
+ Picture brightness, or more precisely, the black level.
+
+``V4L2_CID_CONTRAST`` ``(integer)``
+ Picture contrast or luma gain.
+
+``V4L2_CID_SATURATION`` ``(integer)``
+ Picture color saturation or chroma gain.
+
+``V4L2_CID_HUE`` ``(integer)``
+ Hue or color balance.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME`` ``(integer)``
+ Overall audio volume. Note some drivers also provide an OSS or ALSA
+ mixer interface.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_BALANCE`` ``(integer)``
+ Audio stereo balance. Minimum corresponds to all the way left,
+ maximum to right.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_BASS`` ``(integer)``
+ Audio bass adjustment.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_TREBLE`` ``(integer)``
+ Audio treble adjustment.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE`` ``(boolean)``
+ Mute audio, i. e. set the volume to zero, however without affecting
+ ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME``. Like ALSA drivers, V4L2 drivers must mute
+ at load time to avoid excessive noise. Actually the entire device
+ should be reset to a low power consumption state.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LOUDNESS`` ``(boolean)``
+ Loudness mode (bass boost).
+
+``V4L2_CID_BLACK_LEVEL`` ``(integer)``
+ Another name for brightness (not a synonym of
+ ``V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS``). This control is deprecated and should not
+ be used in new drivers and applications.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUTO_WHITE_BALANCE`` ``(boolean)``
+ Automatic white balance (cameras).
+
+``V4L2_CID_DO_WHITE_BALANCE`` ``(button)``
+ This is an action control. When set (the value is ignored), the
+ device will do a white balance and then hold the current setting.
+ Contrast this with the boolean ``V4L2_CID_AUTO_WHITE_BALANCE``,
+ which, when activated, keeps adjusting the white balance.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RED_BALANCE`` ``(integer)``
+ Red chroma balance.
+
+``V4L2_CID_BLUE_BALANCE`` ``(integer)``
+ Blue chroma balance.
+
+``V4L2_CID_GAMMA`` ``(integer)``
+ Gamma adjust.
+
+``V4L2_CID_WHITENESS`` ``(integer)``
+ Whiteness for grey-scale devices. This is a synonym for
+ ``V4L2_CID_GAMMA``. This control is deprecated and should not be
+ used in new drivers and applications.

+``V4L2_CID_EXPOSURE`` ``(integer)``
+ Exposure (cameras). [Unit?]
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUTOGAIN`` ``(boolean)``
+ Automatic gain/exposure control.
+
+``V4L2_CID_GAIN`` ``(integer)``
+ Gain control.
+
+``V4L2_CID_HFLIP`` ``(boolean)``
+ Mirror the picture horizontally.
+
+``V4L2_CID_VFLIP`` ``(boolean)``
+ Mirror the picture vertically.
+
+.. _`v4l2-power-line-frequency`:
+
+``V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY`` ``(enum)``

+ ``V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_50HZ`` (1),
+ ``V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_60HZ`` (2) and
+ ``V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_AUTO`` (3).
+
+``V4L2_CID_HUE_AUTO`` ``(boolean)``
+ Enables automatic hue control by the device. The effect of setting
+ ``V4L2_CID_HUE`` while automatic hue control is enabled is
+ undefined, drivers should ignore such request.
+
+``V4L2_CID_WHITE_BALANCE_TEMPERATURE`` ``(integer)``
+ This control specifies the white balance settings as a color
+ temperature in Kelvin. A driver should have a minimum of 2800
+ (incandescent) to 6500 (daylight). For more information about color
+ temperature see
+ `Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature>`__.
+
+``V4L2_CID_SHARPNESS`` ``(integer)``
+ Adjusts the sharpness filters in a camera. The minimum value
+ disables the filters, higher values give a sharper picture.
+
+``V4L2_CID_BACKLIGHT_COMPENSATION`` ``(integer)``
+ Adjusts the backlight compensation in a camera. The minimum value
+ disables backlight compensation.
+
+``V4L2_CID_CHROMA_AGC`` ``(boolean)``
+ Chroma automatic gain control.
+
+``V4L2_CID_CHROMA_GAIN`` ``(integer)``
+ Adjusts the Chroma gain control (for use when chroma AGC is
+ disabled).
+
+``V4L2_CID_COLOR_KILLER`` ``(boolean)``
+ Enable the color killer (i. e. force a black & white image in case
+ of a weak video signal).

+ determined by ``V4L2_CID_COLORFX_CBCR`` control.
+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_COLORFX_CBCR`` ``(integer)``
+ Determines the Cb and Cr coefficients for ``V4L2_COLORFX_SET_CBCR``
+ color effect. Bits [7:0] of the supplied 32 bit value are
+ interpreted as Cr component, bits [15:8] as Cb component and bits
+ [31:16] must be zero.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUTOBRIGHTNESS`` ``(boolean)``
+ Enable Automatic Brightness.
+
+``V4L2_CID_ROTATE`` ``(integer)``
+ Rotates the image by specified angle. Common angles are 90, 270 and
+ 180. Rotating the image to 90 and 270 will reverse the height and
+ width of the display window. It is necessary to set the new height
+ and width of the picture using the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl according to the
+ rotation angle selected.
+
+``V4L2_CID_BG_COLOR`` ``(integer)``

+ used as a hint to determine the number of CAPTURE buffers to pass to
+ REQBUFS. The value is the minimum number of CAPTURE buffers that is
+ necessary for hardware to work.
+
+``V4L2_CID_MIN_BUFFERS_FOR_OUTPUT`` ``(integer)``
+ This is a read-only control that can be read by the application and
+ used as a hint to determine the number of OUTPUT buffers to pass to
+ REQBUFS. The value is the minimum number of OUTPUT buffers that is
+ necessary for hardware to work.
+
+.. _`v4l2-alpha-component`:
+
+``V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT`` ``(integer)``
+ Sets the alpha color component. When a capture device (or capture
+ queue of a mem-to-mem device) produces a frame format that includes
+ an alpha component (e.g.
+ :ref:`packed RGB image formats <rgb-formats>`) and the alpha value
+ is not defined by the device or the mem-to-mem input data this
+ control lets you select the alpha component value of all pixels.
+ When an output device (or output queue of a mem-to-mem device)
+ consumes a frame format that doesn't include an alpha component and
+ the device supports alpha channel processing this control lets you
+ set the alpha component value of all pixels for further processing
+ in the device.
+
+``V4L2_CID_LASTP1``
+ End of the predefined control IDs (currently
+ ``V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT`` + 1).
+
+``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE``
+ ID of the first custom (driver specific) control. Applications
+ depending on particular custom controls should check the driver name
+ and version, see :ref:`querycap`.
+
+Applications can enumerate the available controls with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYMENU <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctls, get and set a
+control value with the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` ioctls. Drivers must implement
+``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL``, ``VIDIOC_G_CTRL`` and ``VIDIOC_S_CTRL`` when the
+device has one or more controls, ``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU`` when it has one or
+more menu type controls.

+ since the meaning of the control with that ID is driver dependent. In
+ order to resolve this drivers use unique IDs and the
+ ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs are mapped to those unique IDs by the
+ kernel. Consider these ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs as aliases to
+ the real IDs.
+
+ Many applications today still use the ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs
+ instead of using :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` with
+ the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` flag to enumerate all IDs, so
+ support for ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` is still around.

+*************************************
+Image Cropping, Insertion and Scaling
+*************************************
+
+Some video capture devices can sample a subsection of the picture and
+shrink or enlarge it to an image of arbitrary size. We call these
+abilities cropping and scaling. Some video output devices can scale an
+image up or down and insert it at an arbitrary scan line and horizontal
+offset into a video signal.
+
+Applications can use the following API to select an area in the video
+signal, query the default area and the hardware limits. *Despite their
+name, the :ref:`VIDIOC_CROPCAP <vidioc-cropcap>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CROP <vidioc-g-crop>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CROP <vidioc-g-crop>` ioctls apply to input as well
+as output devices.*
+
+Scaling requires a source and a target. On a video capture or overlay
+device the source is the video signal, and the cropping ioctls determine
+the area actually sampled. The target are images read by the application
+or overlaid onto the graphics screen. Their size (and position for an
+overlay) is negotiated with the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+and :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctls.
+
+On a video output device the source are the images passed in by the
+application, and their size is again negotiated with the
+``VIDIOC_G/S_FMT`` ioctls, or may be encoded in a compressed video
+stream. The target is the video signal, and the cropping ioctls
+determine the area where the images are inserted.
+
+Source and target rectangles are defined even if the device does not
+support scaling or the ``VIDIOC_G/S_CROP`` ioctls. Their size (and
+position where applicable) will be fixed in this case. *All capture and
+output device must support the ``VIDIOC_CROPCAP`` ioctl such that
+applications can determine if scaling takes place.*
+
+
+Cropping Structures
+===================
+
+
+.. _crop-scale:
+
+.. figure:: crop_files/crop.*
+ :alt: crop.pdf / crop.gif
+ :align: center
+
+ Image Cropping, Insertion and Scaling
+
+ The cropping, insertion and scaling process
+
+
+
+For capture devices the coordinates of the top left corner, width and
+height of the area which can be sampled is given by the ``bounds``
+substructure of the struct :ref:`v4l2_cropcap <v4l2-cropcap>`
+returned by the ``VIDIOC_CROPCAP`` ioctl. To support a wide range of
+hardware this specification does not define an origin or units. However
+by convention drivers should horizontally count unscaled samples
+relative to 0H (the leading edge of the horizontal sync pulse, see
+:ref:`vbi-hsync`). Vertically ITU-R line numbers of the first field
+(:ref:`vbi-525`, :ref:`vbi-625`), multiplied by two if the driver
+can capture both fields.
+
+The top left corner, width and height of the source rectangle, that is
+the area actually sampled, is given by struct
+:ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>` using the same coordinate system as
+struct :ref:`v4l2_cropcap <v4l2-cropcap>`. Applications can use the
+``VIDIOC_G_CROP`` and ``VIDIOC_S_CROP`` ioctls to get and set this
+rectangle. It must lie completely within the capture boundaries and the
+driver may further adjust the requested size and/or position according
+to hardware limitations.
+
+Each capture device has a default source rectangle, given by the
+``defrect`` substructure of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_cropcap <v4l2-cropcap>`. The center of this rectangle
+shall align with the center of the active picture area of the video
+signal, and cover what the driver writer considers the complete picture.
+Drivers shall reset the source rectangle to the default when the driver
+is first loaded, but not later.
+
+For output devices these structures and ioctls are used accordingly,
+defining the *target* rectangle where the images will be inserted into
+the video signal.
+
+
+Scaling Adjustments
+===================
+
+Video hardware can have various cropping, insertion and scaling
+limitations. It may only scale up or down, support only discrete scaling
+factors, or have different scaling abilities in horizontal and vertical
+direction. Also it may not support scaling at all. At the same time the
+struct :ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>` rectangle may have to be aligned,
+and both the source and target rectangles may have arbitrary upper and
+lower size limits. In particular the maximum ``width`` and ``height`` in
+struct :ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>` may be smaller than the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_cropcap <v4l2-cropcap>`. ``bounds`` area. Therefore, as
+usual, drivers are expected to adjust the requested parameters and
+return the actual values selected.
+
+Applications can change the source or the target rectangle first, as
+they may prefer a particular image size or a certain area in the video
+signal. If the driver has to adjust both to satisfy hardware
+limitations, the last requested rectangle shall take priority, and the
+driver should preferably adjust the opposite one. The
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl however shall not change
+the driver state and therefore only adjust the requested rectangle.
+
+Suppose scaling on a video capture device is restricted to a factor 1:1
+or 2:1 in either direction and the target image size must be a multiple
+of 16 × 16 pixels. The source cropping rectangle is set to defaults,
+which are also the upper limit in this example, of 640 × 400 pixels at
+offset 0, 0. An application requests an image size of 300 × 225 pixels,
+assuming video will be scaled down from the "full picture" accordingly.
+The driver sets the image size to the closest possible values 304 × 224,
+then chooses the cropping rectangle closest to the requested size, that
+is 608 × 224 (224 × 2:1 would exceed the limit 400). The offset 0, 0 is
+still valid, thus unmodified. Given the default cropping rectangle
+reported by ``VIDIOC_CROPCAP`` the application can easily propose
+another offset to center the cropping rectangle.
+
+Now the application may insist on covering an area using a picture
+aspect ratio closer to the original request, so it asks for a cropping
+rectangle of 608 × 456 pixels. The present scaling factors limit
+cropping to 640 × 384, so the driver returns the cropping size 608 × 384
+and adjusts the image size to closest possible 304 × 192.
+
+
+Examples
+========
+
+Source and target rectangles shall remain unchanged across closing and
+reopening a device, such that piping data into or out of a device will
+work without special preparations. More advanced applications should
+ensure the parameters are suitable before starting I/O.

+
+***********************
+Video Capture Interface
+***********************
+
+Video capture devices sample an analog video signal and store the
+digitized images in memory. Today nearly all devices can capture at full
+25 or 30 frames/second. With this interface applications can control the
+capture process and move images from the driver into user space.
+
+Conventionally V4L2 video capture devices are accessed through character
+device special files named ``/dev/video`` and ``/dev/video0`` to
+``/dev/video63`` with major number 81 and minor numbers 0 to 63.
+``/dev/video`` is typically a symbolic link to the preferred video
+device. Note the same device files are used for video output devices.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the video capture interface set the
+``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` or ``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE`` flag in
+the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. As secondary device
+functions they may also support the :ref:`video overlay <overlay>`
+(``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_OVERLAY``) and the :ref:`raw VBI capture <raw-vbi>`
+(``V4L2_CAP_VBI_CAPTURE``) interface. At least one of the read/write or
+streaming I/O methods must be supported. Tuners and audio inputs are
+optional.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+Video capture devices shall support :ref:`audio input <audio>`,
+:ref:`tuner <tuner>`, :ref:`controls <control>`,
+:ref:`cropping and scaling <crop>` and
+:ref:`streaming parameter <streaming-par>` ioctls as needed. The
+:ref:`video input <video>` and :ref:`video standard <standard>`
+ioctls must be supported by all video capture devices.
+
+
+Image Format Negotiation
+========================
+
+The result of a capture operation is determined by cropping and image
+format parameters. The former select an area of the video picture to
+capture, the latter how images are stored in memory, i. e. in RGB or YUV
+format, the number of bits per pixel or width and height. Together they
+also define how images are scaled in the process.
+
+As usual these parameters are *not* reset at :ref:`open() <func-open>`
+time to permit Unix tool chains, programming a device and then reading
+from it as if it was a plain file. Well written V4L2 applications ensure
+they really get what they want, including cropping and scaling.
+
+Cropping initialization at minimum requires to reset the parameters to
+defaults. An example is given in :ref:`crop`.
+
+To query the current image format applications set the ``type`` field of
+a struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` or
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE`` and call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl with a pointer to this
+structure. Drivers fill the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` ``pix`` or the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` ``pix_mp``
+member of the ``fmt`` union.
+
+To request different parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` as above and initialize all
+fields of the struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>`
+``vbi`` member of the ``fmt`` union, or better just modify the results
+of ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``, and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers may adjust the
+parameters and finally return the actual parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``
+does.
+
+Like ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` the :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl
+can be used to learn about hardware limitations without disabling I/O or
+possibly time consuming hardware preparations.
+
+The contents of struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` and
+struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` are
+discussed in :ref:`pixfmt`. See also the specification of the
+``VIDIOC_G_FMT``, ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` ioctls for
+details. Video capture devices must implement both the ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``
+and ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl, even if ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ignores all
+requests and always returns default parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does.
+``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` is optional.
+
+
+Reading Images
+==============
+
+A video capture device may support the :ref:`read() function <rw>`
+and/or streaming (:ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` or
+:ref:`user pointer <userp>`) I/O. See :ref:`io` for details.

+.. _codec:
+
+***************
+Codec Interface
+***************
+
+A V4L2 codec can compress, decompress, transform, or otherwise convert
+video data from one format into another format, in memory. Typically
+such devices are memory-to-memory devices (i.e. devices with the
+``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M`` or ``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_M2M_MPLANE`` capability set).
+
+A memory-to-memory video node acts just like a normal video node, but it
+supports both output (sending frames from memory to the codec hardware)
+and capture (receiving the processed frames from the codec hardware into
+memory) stream I/O. An application will have to setup the stream I/O for
+both sides and finally call :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>`
+for both capture and output to start the codec.
+
+Video compression codecs use the MPEG controls to setup their codec
+parameters (note that the MPEG controls actually support many more
+codecs than just MPEG). See :ref:`mpeg-controls`.
+
+Memory-to-memory devices can often be used as a shared resource: you can
+open the video node multiple times, each application setting up their
+own codec properties that are local to the file handle, and each can use
+it independently from the others. The driver will arbitrate access to
+the codec and reprogram it whenever another file handler gets access.
+This is different from the usual video node behavior where the video
+properties are global to the device (i.e. changing something through one
+file handle is visible through another file handle).

+
+***************
+Event Interface
+***************
+
+The V4L2 event interface provides a means for a user to get immediately
+notified on certain conditions taking place on a device. This might
+include start of frame or loss of signal events, for example. Changes in
+the value or state of a V4L2 control can also be reported through
+events.
+
+To receive events, the events the user is interested in first must be
+subscribed using the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT <vidioc-subscribe-event>` ioctl. Once
+an event is subscribed, the events of subscribed types are dequeueable
+using the :ref:`VIDIOC_DQEVENT <vidioc-dqevent>` ioctl. Events may be
+unsubscribed using VIDIOC_UNSUBSCRIBE_EVENT ioctl. The special event
+type V4L2_EVENT_ALL may be used to unsubscribe all the events the
+driver supports.
+
+The event subscriptions and event queues are specific to file handles.
+Subscribing an event on one file handle does not affect other file
+handles.
+
+The information on dequeueable events is obtained by using select or
+poll system calls on video devices. The V4L2 events use POLLPRI events
+on poll system call and exceptions on select system call.
+
+Starting with kernel 3.1 certain guarantees can be given with regards to
+events:
+
+1. Each subscribed event has its own internal dedicated event queue.
+ This means that flooding of one event type will not interfere with
+ other event types.
+
+2. If the internal event queue for a particular subscribed event becomes
+ full, then the oldest event in that queue will be dropped.
+
+3. Where applicable, certain event types can ensure that the payload of
+ the oldest event that is about to be dropped will be merged with the
+ payload of the next oldest event. Thus ensuring that no information
+ is lost, but only an intermediate step leading up to that
+ information. See the documentation for the event you want to
+ subscribe to whether this is applicable for that event or not.

+******************************
+Video Output Overlay Interface
+******************************
+
+
+**Also known as On-Screen Display (OSD)**
+Some video output devices can overlay a framebuffer image onto the
+outgoing video signal. Applications can set up such an overlay using
+this interface, which borrows structures and ioctls of the
+:ref:`Video Overlay <overlay>` interface.
+
+The OSD function is accessible through the same character special file
+as the :ref:`Video Output <capture>` function. Note the default
+function of such a ``/dev/video`` device is video capturing or output.
+The OSD function is only available after calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the *Video Output Overlay* interface set the
+``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_OUTPUT_OVERLAY`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of
+struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl.
+
+
+Framebuffer
+===========
+
+Contrary to the *Video Overlay* interface the framebuffer is normally
+implemented on the TV card and not the graphics card. On Linux it is
+accessible as a framebuffer device (``/dev/fbN``). Given a V4L2 device,
+applications can find the corresponding framebuffer device by calling
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` ioctl. It returns, amongst
+other information, the physical address of the framebuffer in the
+``base`` field of struct :ref:`v4l2_framebuffer <v4l2-framebuffer>`.
+The framebuffer device ioctl ``FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO`` returns the same
+address in the ``smem_start`` field of struct
+:c:type:`struct fb_fix_screeninfo`. The ``FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO``
+ioctl and struct :c:type:`struct fb_fix_screeninfo` are defined in
+the ``linux/fb.h`` header file.
+
+The width and height of the framebuffer depends on the current video
+standard. A V4L2 driver may reject attempts to change the video standard
+(or any other ioctl which would imply a framebuffer size change) with an
+EBUSY error code until all applications closed the framebuffer device.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <linux/fb.h>
+
+ struct v4l2_framebuffer fbuf;
+ unsigned int i;
+ int fb_fd;
+
+ if (-1 == ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_G_FBUF, &fbuf)) {
+ perror("VIDIOC_G_FBUF");

+ }
+
+ /* fb_fd is the file descriptor of the framebuffer device
+ for the video output overlay, or -1 if no device was found. */
+
+
+Overlay Window and Scaling
+==========================
+
+The overlay is controlled by source and target rectangles. The source
+rectangle selects a subsection of the framebuffer image to be overlaid,
+the target rectangle an area in the outgoing video signal where the
+image will appear. Drivers may or may not support scaling, and arbitrary
+sizes and positions of these rectangles. Further drivers may support any
+(or none) of the clipping/blending methods defined for the
+:ref:`Video Overlay <overlay>` interface.
+
+A struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>` defines the size of the
+source rectangle, its position in the framebuffer and the
+clipping/blending method to be used for the overlay. To get the current
+parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_OVERLAY`` and call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. The driver fills the
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_window` substructure named ``win``. It is not
+possible to retrieve a previously programmed clipping list or bitmap.
+
+To program the source rectangle applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_OVERLAY``, initialize the ``win``
+substructure and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+The driver adjusts the parameters against hardware limits and returns
+the actual parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does. Like ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``,
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl can be used to learn
+about driver capabilities without actually changing driver state. Unlike
+``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` this also works after the overlay has been enabled.
+
+A struct :ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>` defines the size and position
+of the target rectangle. The scaling factor of the overlay is implied by
+the width and height given in struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`
+and struct :ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>`. The cropping API applies to
+*Video Output* and *Video Output Overlay* devices in the same way as to
+*Video Capture* and *Video Overlay* devices, merely reversing the
+direction of the data flow. For more information see :ref:`crop`.
+
+
+Enabling Overlay
+================
+
+There is no V4L2 ioctl to enable or disable the overlay, however the
+framebuffer interface of the driver may support the ``FBIOBLANK`` ioctl.

+Video output devices shall support :ref:`audio output <audio>`,
+:ref:`modulator <tuner>`, :ref:`controls <control>`,
+:ref:`cropping and scaling <crop>` and
+:ref:`streaming parameter <streaming-par>` ioctls as needed. The
+:ref:`video output <video>` and :ref:`video standard <standard>`
+ioctls must be supported by all video output devices.
+
+
+Image Format Negotiation
+========================
+
+The output is determined by cropping and image format parameters. The
+former select an area of the video picture where the image will appear,
+the latter how images are stored in memory, i. e. in RGB or YUV format,
+the number of bits per pixel or width and height. Together they also
+define how images are scaled in the process.
+
+As usual these parameters are *not* reset at :ref:`open() <func-open>`
+time to permit Unix tool chains, programming a device and then writing
+to it as if it was a plain file. Well written V4L2 applications ensure
+they really get what they want, including cropping and scaling.
+
+Cropping initialization at minimum requires to reset the parameters to
+defaults. An example is given in :ref:`crop`.
+
+To query the current image format applications set the ``type`` field of
+a struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT`` or ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``
+and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl with a pointer
+to this structure. Drivers fill the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` ``pix`` or the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` ``pix_mp``
+member of the ``fmt`` union.
+
+To request different parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` as above and initialize all
+fields of the struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>`
+``vbi`` member of the ``fmt`` union, or better just modify the results
+of ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``, and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers may adjust the
+parameters and finally return the actual parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``
+does.
+
+Like ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` the :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl
+can be used to learn about hardware limitations without disabling I/O or
+possibly time consuming hardware preparations.
+
+The contents of struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` and
+struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` are
+discussed in :ref:`pixfmt`. See also the specification of the
+``VIDIOC_G_FMT``, ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` ioctls for
+details. Video output devices must implement both the ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``
+and ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl, even if ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ignores all
+requests and always returns default parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does.
+``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` is optional.
+
+
+Writing Images
+==============
+
+A video output device may support the :ref:`write() function <rw>`
+and/or streaming (:ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` or
+:ref:`user pointer <userp>`) I/O. See :ref:`io` for details.

+
+***********************
+Video Overlay Interface
+***********************
+
+
+**Also known as Framebuffer Overlay or Previewing**
+Video overlay devices have the ability to genlock (TV-)video into the
+(VGA-)video signal of a graphics card, or to store captured images
+directly in video memory of a graphics card, typically with clipping.
+This can be considerable more efficient than capturing images and
+displaying them by other means. In the old days when only nuclear power
+plants needed cooling towers this used to be the only way to put live
+video into a window.
+
+Video overlay devices are accessed through the same character special
+files as :ref:`video capture <capture>` devices. Note the default
+function of a ``/dev/video`` device is video capturing. The overlay
+function is only available after calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+
+The driver may support simultaneous overlay and capturing using the
+read/write and streaming I/O methods. If so, operation at the nominal
+frame rate of the video standard is not guaranteed. Frames may be
+directed away from overlay to capture, or one field may be used for
+overlay and the other for capture if the capture parameters permit this.
+
+Applications should use different file descriptors for capturing and
+overlay. This must be supported by all drivers capable of simultaneous
+capturing and overlay. Optionally these drivers may also permit
+capturing and overlay with a single file descriptor for compatibility
+with V4L and earlier versions of V4L2. [1]_
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the video overlay interface set the
+``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_OVERLAY`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. The overlay I/O
+method specified below must be supported. Tuners and audio inputs are
+optional.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+Video overlay devices shall support :ref:`audio input <audio>`,
+:ref:`tuner <tuner>`, :ref:`controls <control>`,
+:ref:`cropping and scaling <crop>` and
+:ref:`streaming parameter <streaming-par>` ioctls as needed. The
+:ref:`video input <video>` and :ref:`video standard <standard>`
+ioctls must be supported by all video overlay devices.
+
+
+Setup
+=====
+
+Before overlay can commence applications must program the driver with
+frame buffer parameters, namely the address and size of the frame buffer
+and the image format, for example RGB 5:6:5. The
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` ioctls are available to get and
+set these parameters, respectively. The ``VIDIOC_S_FBUF`` ioctl is
+privileged because it allows to set up DMA into physical memory,
+bypassing the memory protection mechanisms of the kernel. Only the
+superuser can change the frame buffer address and size. Users are not
+supposed to run TV applications as root or with SUID bit set. A small
+helper application with suitable privileges should query the graphics
+system and program the V4L2 driver at the appropriate time.
+
+Some devices add the video overlay to the output signal of the graphics
+card. In this case the frame buffer is not modified by the video device,
+and the frame buffer address and pixel format are not needed by the
+driver. The ``VIDIOC_S_FBUF`` ioctl is not privileged. An application
+can check for this type of device by calling the ``VIDIOC_G_FBUF``
+ioctl.
+
+A driver may support any (or none) of five clipping/blending methods:
+
+1. Chroma-keying displays the overlaid image only where pixels in the
+ primary graphics surface assume a certain color.
+
+2. A bitmap can be specified where each bit corresponds to a pixel in
+ the overlaid image. When the bit is set, the corresponding video
+ pixel is displayed, otherwise a pixel of the graphics surface.
+
+3. A list of clipping rectangles can be specified. In these regions *no*
+ video is displayed, so the graphics surface can be seen here.
+
+4. The framebuffer has an alpha channel that can be used to clip or
+ blend the framebuffer with the video.
+
+5. A global alpha value can be specified to blend the framebuffer
+ contents with video images.
+
+When simultaneous capturing and overlay is supported and the hardware
+prohibits different image and frame buffer formats, the format requested
+first takes precedence. The attempt to capture
+(:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`) or overlay
+(:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`) may fail with an EBUSY error
+code or return accordingly modified parameters..
+
+
+Overlay Window
+==============
+
+The overlaid image is determined by cropping and overlay window
+parameters. The former select an area of the video picture to capture,
+the latter how images are overlaid and clipped. Cropping initialization
+at minimum requires to reset the parameters to defaults. An example is
+given in :ref:`crop`.
+
+The overlay window is described by a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`. It defines the size of the image,
+its position over the graphics surface and the clipping to be applied.
+To get the current parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY`` and call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. The driver fills the
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_window` substructure named ``win``. It is not
+possible to retrieve a previously programmed clipping list or bitmap.
+
+To program the overlay window applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY``, initialize the ``win`` substructure and
+call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. The driver
+adjusts the parameters against hardware limits and returns the actual
+parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does. Like ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``, the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl can be used to learn
+about driver capabilities without actually changing driver state. Unlike
+``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` this also works after the overlay has been enabled.
+
+The scaling factor of the overlaid image is implied by the width and
+height given in struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>` and the size
+of the cropping rectangle. For more information see :ref:`crop`.
+
+When simultaneous capturing and overlay is supported and the hardware
+prohibits different image and window sizes, the size requested first
+takes precedence. The attempt to capture or overlay as well
+(:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`) may fail with an EBUSY error
+code or return accordingly modified parameters.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-window:
+
+struct v4l2_window
+------------------
+
+``struct v4l2_rect w``
+ Size and position of the window relative to the top, left corner of
+ the frame buffer defined with
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`. The window can extend the
+ frame buffer width and height, the ``x`` and ``y`` coordinates can
+ be negative, and it can lie completely outside the frame buffer. The
+ driver clips the window accordingly, or if that is not possible,
+ modifies its size and/or position.
+
+``enum v4l2_field field``
+ Applications set this field to determine which video field shall be
+ overlaid, typically one of ``V4L2_FIELD_ANY`` (0),
+ ``V4L2_FIELD_TOP``, ``V4L2_FIELD_BOTTOM`` or
+ ``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED``. Drivers may have to choose a different
+ field order and return the actual setting here.
+
+``__u32 chromakey``
+ When chroma-keying has been negotiated with
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` applications set this field
+ to the desired pixel value for the chroma key. The format is the
+ same as the pixel format of the framebuffer (struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_framebuffer <v4l2-framebuffer>` ``fmt.pixelformat``
+ field), with bytes in host order. E. g. for
+ :ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR24 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-BGR32>` the value should
+ be 0xRRGGBB on a little endian, 0xBBGGRR on a big endian host.
+
+``struct v4l2_clip * clips``
+ When chroma-keying has *not* been negotiated and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` indicated this capability,
+ applications can set this field to point to an array of clipping
+ rectangles.
+
+Like the window coordinates
+w
+, clipping rectangles are defined relative to the top, left corner of
+the frame buffer. However clipping rectangles must not extend the frame
+buffer width and height, and they must not overlap. If possible
+applications should merge adjacent rectangles. Whether this must create
+x-y or y-x bands, or the order of rectangles, is not defined. When clip
+lists are not supported the driver ignores this field. Its contents
+after calling
+!ri!:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+are undefined.
+
+``__u32 clipcount``
+ When the application set the ``clips`` field, this field must
+ contain the number of clipping rectangles in the list. When clip
+ lists are not supported the driver ignores this field, its contents
+ after calling ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` are undefined. When clip lists are
+ supported but no clipping is desired this field must be set to zero.
+
+``void * bitmap``
+ When chroma-keying has *not* been negotiated and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` indicated this capability,
+ applications can set this field to point to a clipping bit mask.
+
+It must be of the same size as the window, ``w.width`` and ``w.height``.
+Each bit corresponds to a pixel in the overlaid image, which is
+displayed only when the bit is *set*. Pixel coordinates translate to
+bits like:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ ((__u8 *) bitmap)[w.width * y + x / 8] & (1 << (x & 7))
+
+where ``0`` ≤ x < ``w.width`` and ``0`` ≤ y <``w.height``. [2]_
+
+When a clipping bit mask is not supported the driver ignores this field,
+its contents after calling :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` are
+undefined. When a bit mask is supported but no clipping is desired this
+field must be set to ``NULL``.
+
+Applications need not create a clip list or bit mask. When they pass
+both, or despite negotiating chroma-keying, the results are undefined.
+Regardless of the chosen method, the clipping abilities of the hardware
+may be limited in quantity or quality. The results when these limits are
+exceeded are undefined. [3]_
+
+``__u8 global_alpha``
+ The global alpha value used to blend the framebuffer with video
+ images, if global alpha blending has been negotiated
+ (``V4L2_FBUF_FLAG_GLOBAL_ALPHA``, see
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`,
+ :ref:`framebuffer-flags`).
+
+Note this field was added in Linux 2.6.23, extending the structure.
+However the
+!ri!:ref:`VIDIOC_G/S/TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ioctls, which take a pointer to a
+!ri!:ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>`
+parent structure with padding bytes at the end, are not affected.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-clip:
+
+struct v4l2_clip
+----------------
+
+The X Window system defines "regions" which are vectors of struct BoxRec
+{ short x1, y1, x2, y2; } with width = x2 - x1 and height = y2 - y1, so
+one cannot pass X11 clip lists directly.
+
+``struct v4l2_rect c``
+ Coordinates of the clipping rectangle, relative to the top, left
+ corner of the frame buffer. Only window pixels *outside* all
+ clipping rectangles are displayed.
+
+``struct v4l2_clip * next``
+ Pointer to the next clipping rectangle, NULL when this is the last
+ rectangle. Drivers ignore this field, it cannot be used to pass a
+ linked list of clipping rectangles.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-rect:
+
+struct v4l2_rect
+----------------
+
+``__s32 left``
+ Horizontal offset of the top, left corner of the rectangle, in
+ pixels.
+
+``__s32 top``
+ Vertical offset of the top, left corner of the rectangle, in pixels.
+ Offsets increase to the right and down.
+
+``__u32 width``
+ Width of the rectangle, in pixels.
+
+``__u32 height``
+ Height of the rectangle, in pixels.
+
+
+Enabling Overlay
+================
+
+To start or stop the frame buffer overlay applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_OVERLAY <vidioc-overlay>` ioctl.
+
+.. [1]
+ A common application of two file descriptors is the XFree86
+ :ref:`Xv/V4L <xvideo>` interface driver and a V4L2 application.
+ While the X server controls video overlay, the application can take
+ advantage of memory mapping and DMA.
+
+ In the opinion of the designers of this API, no driver writer taking
+ the efforts to support simultaneous capturing and overlay will
+ restrict this ability by requiring a single file descriptor, as in
+ V4L and earlier versions of V4L2. Making this optional means
+ applications depending on two file descriptors need backup routines
+ to be compatible with all drivers, which is considerable more work
+ than using two fds in applications which do not. Also two fd's fit
+ the general concept of one file descriptor for each logical stream.
+ Hence as a complexity trade-off drivers *must* support two file
+ descriptors and *may* support single fd operation.
+
+.. [2]
+ Should we require ``w.width`` to be a multiple of eight?
+
+.. [3]
+ When the image is written into frame buffer memory it will be
+ undesirable if the driver clips out less pixels than expected,
+ because the application and graphics system are not aware these
+ regions need to be refreshed. The driver should clip out more pixels
+ or not write the image at all.

+***************
+Radio Interface
+***************
+
+This interface is intended for AM and FM (analog) radio receivers and
+transmitters.
+
+Conventionally V4L2 radio devices are accessed through character device
+special files named ``/dev/radio`` and ``/dev/radio0`` to
+``/dev/radio63`` with major number 81 and minor numbers 64 to 127.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the radio interface set the ``V4L2_CAP_RADIO`` and
+``V4L2_CAP_TUNER`` or ``V4L2_CAP_MODULATOR`` flag in the
+``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. Other combinations of
+capability flags are reserved for future extensions.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+Radio devices can support :ref:`controls <control>`, and must support
+the :ref:`tuner or modulator <tuner>` ioctls.
+
+They do not support the video input or output, audio input or output,
+video standard, cropping and scaling, compression and streaming
+parameter, or overlay ioctls. All other ioctls and I/O methods are

+
+
+Programming
+===========
+
+Radio devices may have a couple audio controls (as discussed in
+:ref:`control`) such as a volume control, possibly custom controls.
+Further all radio devices have one tuner or modulator (these are
+discussed in :ref:`tuner`) with index number zero to select the radio
+frequency and to determine if a monaural or FM stereo program is
+received/emitted. Drivers switch automatically between AM and FM
+depending on the selected frequency. The
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_MODULATOR <vidioc-g-modulator>` ioctl reports the

+
+.. _raw-vbi:
+
+**********************
+Raw VBI Data Interface
+**********************
+
+VBI is an abbreviation of Vertical Blanking Interval, a gap in the
+sequence of lines of an analog video signal. During VBI no picture
+information is transmitted, allowing some time while the electron beam
+of a cathode ray tube TV returns to the top of the screen. Using an
+oscilloscope you will find here the vertical synchronization pulses and
+short data packages ASK modulated [1]_ onto the video signal. These are
+transmissions of services such as Teletext or Closed Caption.
+
+Subject of this interface type is raw VBI data, as sampled off a video
+signal, or to be added to a signal for output. The data format is
+similar to uncompressed video images, a number of lines times a number
+of samples per line, we call this a VBI image.
+
+Conventionally V4L2 VBI devices are accessed through character device
+special files named ``/dev/vbi`` and ``/dev/vbi0`` to ``/dev/vbi31``
+with major number 81 and minor numbers 224 to 255. ``/dev/vbi`` is
+typically a symbolic link to the preferred VBI device. This convention
+applies to both input and output devices.
+
+To address the problems of finding related video and VBI devices VBI
+capturing and output is also available as device function under
+``/dev/video``. To capture or output raw VBI data with these devices
+applications must call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+Accessed as ``/dev/vbi``, raw VBI capturing or output is the default
+device function.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the raw VBI capturing or output API set the
+``V4L2_CAP_VBI_CAPTURE`` or ``V4L2_CAP_VBI_OUTPUT`` flags, respectively,
+in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. At least one of the
+read/write, streaming or asynchronous I/O methods must be supported. VBI
+devices may or may not have a tuner or modulator.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+VBI devices shall support :ref:`video input or output <video>`,
+:ref:`tuner or modulator <tuner>`, and :ref:`controls <control>`
+ioctls as needed. The :ref:`video standard <standard>` ioctls provide
+information vital to program a VBI device, therefore must be supported.
+
+
+Raw VBI Format Negotiation
+==========================
+
+Raw VBI sampling abilities can vary, in particular the sampling
+frequency. To properly interpret the data V4L2 specifies an ioctl to
+query the sampling parameters. Moreover, to allow for some flexibility
+applications can also suggest different parameters.
+
+As usual these parameters are *not* reset at :ref:`open() <func-open>`
+time to permit Unix tool chains, programming a device and then reading
+from it as if it was a plain file. Well written V4L2 applications should
+always ensure they really get what they want, requesting reasonable
+parameters and then checking if the actual parameters are suitable.
+
+To query the current raw VBI capture parameters applications set the
+``type`` field of a struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI_CAPTURE`` or ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI_OUTPUT``, and call
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl with a pointer to this
+structure. Drivers fill the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>` ``vbi`` member of the
+``fmt`` union.
+
+To request different parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` as above and initialize all
+fields of the struct :ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>`
+``vbi`` member of the ``fmt`` union, or better just modify the results
+of ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``, and call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers return an EINVAL error
+code only when the given parameters are ambiguous, otherwise they modify
+the parameters according to the hardware capabilities and return the
+actual parameters. When the driver allocates resources at this point, it
+may return an EBUSY error code to indicate the returned parameters are
+valid but the required resources are currently not available. That may
+happen for instance when the video and VBI areas to capture would
+overlap, or when the driver supports multiple opens and another process
+already requested VBI capturing or output. Anyway, applications must
+expect other resource allocation points which may return EBUSY, at the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl and the first read(),
+write() and select() call.
+
+VBI devices must implement both the ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` and
+``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl, even if ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ignores all requests
+and always returns default parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does.
+``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` is optional.

+ - ``count``\ [2]
+
+ - The number of lines in the first and second field image,

+

+
+ - :cspan:`2`
+
+ Drivers should be as flexibility as possible. For example, it may
+ be possible to extend or move the VBI capture window down to the
+ picture area, implementing a 'full field mode' to capture data
+ service transmissions embedded in the picture.
+
+ An application can set the first or second ``count`` value to zero
+ if no data is required from the respective field; ``count``\ [1]
+ if the scanning system is progressive, i. e. not interlaced. The
+ corresponding start value shall be ignored by the application and
+ driver. Anyway, drivers may not support single field capturing and
+ return both count values non-zero.
+
+ Both ``count`` values set to zero, or line numbers outside the
+ bounds depicted in :ref:`vbi-525` and :ref:`vbi-625`, or a
+ field image covering lines of two fields, are invalid and shall
+ not be returned by the driver.
+
+ To initialize the ``start`` and ``count`` fields, applications
+ must first determine the current video standard selection. The
+ :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` or the ``framelines`` field
+ of struct :ref:`v4l2_standard <v4l2-standard>` can be evaluated

+ two fields are interlaced (cf. ``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED``). The
+ first line of the first field followed by the first line of the
+ second field, then the two second lines, and so on. Such a layout
+ may be necessary when the hardware has been programmed to capture

+Remember the VBI image format depends on the selected video standard,

+current standard first. Attempts to read or write data ahead of format
+negotiation, or after switching the video standard which may invalidate
+the negotiated VBI parameters, should be refused by the driver. A format
+change during active I/O is not permitted.
+
+
+Reading and writing VBI images
+==============================
+
+To assure synchronization with the field number and easier
+implementation, the smallest unit of data passed at a time is one frame,
+consisting of two fields of VBI images immediately following in memory.
+
+The total size of a frame computes as follows:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ (count[0] + count[1]) *
+ samples_per_line * sample size in bytes
+
+The sample size is most likely always one byte, applications must check
+the ``sample_format`` field though, to function properly with other
+drivers.
+
+A VBI device may support :ref:`read/write <rw>` and/or streaming
+(:ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` or :ref:`user pointer <userp>`) I/O.
+The latter bears the possibility of synchronizing video and VBI data by
+using buffer timestamps.
+
+Remember the :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl and the
+first read(), write() and select() call can be resource allocation
+points returning an EBUSY error code if the required hardware resources
+are temporarily unavailable, for example the device is already in use by
+another process.
+
+.. [1]
+ ASK: Amplitude-Shift Keying. A high signal level represents a '1'
+ bit, a low level a '0' bit.
+
+.. [2]
+ A few devices may be unable to sample VBI data at all but can extend
+ the video capture window to the VBI region.
+
+.. [3]
+ Most VBI services transmit on both fields, but some have different
+ semantics depending on the field number. These cannot be reliable
+ decoded or encoded when ``V4L2_VBI_UNSYNC`` is set.

+RDS Interface
+*************
+
+The Radio Data System transmits supplementary information in binary
+format, for example the station name or travel information, on an
+inaudible audio subcarrier of a radio program. This interface is aimed
+at devices capable of receiving and/or transmitting RDS information.
+
+For more information see the core RDS standard :ref:`iec62106` and the
+RBDS standard :ref:`nrsc4`.
+
+Note that the RBDS standard as is used in the USA is almost identical to
+the RDS standard. Any RDS decoder/encoder can also handle RBDS. Only
+some of the fields have slightly different meanings. See the RBDS
+standard for more information.
+
+The RBDS standard also specifies support for MMBS (Modified Mobile
+Search). This is a proprietary format which seems to be discontinued.
+The RDS interface does not support this format. Should support for MMBS
+(or the so-called 'E blocks' in general) be needed, then please contact
+the linux-media mailing list:
+`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the RDS capturing API set the
+``V4L2_CAP_RDS_CAPTURE`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. Any tuner that
+supports RDS will set the ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS`` flag in the
+``capability`` field of struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>`. If the
+driver only passes RDS blocks without interpreting the data the
+``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS_BLOCK_IO`` flag has to be set, see
+:ref:`Reading RDS data <reading-rds-data>`. For future use the flag
+``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS_CONTROLS`` has also been defined. However, a driver
+for a radio tuner with this capability does not yet exist, so if you are
+planning to write such a driver you should discuss this on the
+linux-media mailing list:
+`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__.
+
+Whether an RDS signal is present can be detected by looking at the
+``rxsubchans`` field of struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>`: the
+``V4L2_TUNER_SUB_RDS`` will be set if RDS data was detected.
+
+Devices supporting the RDS output API set the ``V4L2_CAP_RDS_OUTPUT``
+flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. Any modulator that
+supports RDS will set the ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS`` flag in the
+``capability`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_modulator <v4l2-modulator>`. In order to enable the RDS
+transmission one must set the ``V4L2_TUNER_SUB_RDS`` bit in the
+``txsubchans`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_modulator <v4l2-modulator>`. If the driver only passes RDS
+blocks without interpreting the data the ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS_BLOCK_IO``
+flag has to be set. If the tuner is capable of handling RDS entities
+like program identification codes and radio text, the flag
+``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_RDS_CONTROLS`` should be set, see
+:ref:`Writing RDS data <writing-rds-data>` and
+:ref:`FM Transmitter Control Reference <fm-tx-controls>`.

+**************************************
+Software Defined Radio Interface (SDR)
+**************************************
+
+SDR is an abbreviation of Software Defined Radio, the radio device which
+uses application software for modulation or demodulation. This interface
+is intended for controlling and data streaming of such devices.
+
+SDR devices are accessed through character device special files named
+``/dev/swradio0`` to ``/dev/swradio255`` with major number 81 and
+dynamically allocated minor numbers 0 to 255.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the SDR receiver interface set the
+``V4L2_CAP_SDR_CAPTURE`` and ``V4L2_CAP_TUNER`` flag in the
+``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. That flag means the
+device has an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC), which is a mandatory
+element for the SDR receiver.
+
+Devices supporting the SDR transmitter interface set the
+``V4L2_CAP_SDR_OUTPUT`` and ``V4L2_CAP_MODULATOR`` flag in the
+``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. That flag means the
+device has an Digital to Analog Converter (DAC), which is a mandatory
+element for the SDR transmitter.
+
+At least one of the read/write, streaming or asynchronous I/O methods
+must be supported.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+SDR devices can support :ref:`controls <control>`, and must support
+the :ref:`tuner <tuner>` ioctls. Tuner ioctls are used for setting the
+ADC/DAC sampling rate (sampling frequency) and the possible radio
+frequency (RF).
+
+The ``V4L2_TUNER_SDR`` tuner type is used for setting SDR device ADC/DAC
+frequency, and the ``V4L2_TUNER_RF`` tuner type is used for setting
+radio frequency. The tuner index of the RF tuner (if any) must always
+follow the SDR tuner index. Normally the SDR tuner is #0 and the RF
+tuner is #1.
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_S_HW_FREQ_SEEK <vidioc-s-hw-freq-seek>` ioctl is
+not supported.
+
+
+Data Format Negotiation
+=======================
+
+The SDR device uses the :ref:`format <format>` ioctls to select the
+capture and output format. Both the sampling resolution and the data
+streaming format are bound to that selectable format. In addition to the
+basic :ref:`format <format>` ioctls, the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT <vidioc-enum-fmt>` ioctl must be supported as
+well.
+
+To use the :ref:`format <format>` ioctls applications set the ``type``
+field of a struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SDR_CAPTURE`` or ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SDR_OUTPUT`` and use
+the struct :ref:`v4l2_sdr_format <v4l2-sdr-format>` ``sdr`` member
+of the ``fmt`` union as needed per the desired operation. Currently
+there is two fields, ``pixelformat`` and ``buffersize``, of struct
+struct :ref:`v4l2_sdr_format <v4l2-sdr-format>` which are used.
+Content of the ``pixelformat`` is V4L2 FourCC code of the data format.
+The ``buffersize`` field is maximum buffer size in bytes required for
+data transfer, set by the driver in order to inform application.

+
+*************************
+Sliced VBI Data Interface
+*************************
+
+VBI stands for Vertical Blanking Interval, a gap in the sequence of
+lines of an analog video signal. During VBI no picture information is
+transmitted, allowing some time while the electron beam of a cathode ray
+tube TV returns to the top of the screen.
+
+Sliced VBI devices use hardware to demodulate data transmitted in the
+VBI. V4L2 drivers shall *not* do this by software, see also the
+:ref:`raw VBI interface <raw-vbi>`. The data is passed as short
+packets of fixed size, covering one scan line each. The number of
+packets per video frame is variable.
+
+Sliced VBI capture and output devices are accessed through the same
+character special files as raw VBI devices. When a driver supports both
+interfaces, the default function of a ``/dev/vbi`` device is *raw* VBI
+capturing or output, and the sliced VBI function is only available after
+calling the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl as defined
+below. Likewise a ``/dev/video`` device may support the sliced VBI API,
+however the default function here is video capturing or output.
+Different file descriptors must be used to pass raw and sliced VBI data
+simultaneously, if this is supported by the driver.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+Devices supporting the sliced VBI capturing or output API set the
+``V4L2_CAP_SLICED_VBI_CAPTURE`` or ``V4L2_CAP_SLICED_VBI_OUTPUT`` flag
+respectively, in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. At least one of the
+read/write, streaming or asynchronous :ref:`I/O methods <io>` must be
+supported. Sliced VBI devices may have a tuner or modulator.
+
+
+Supplemental Functions
+======================
+
+Sliced VBI devices shall support :ref:`video input or output <video>`
+and :ref:`tuner or modulator <tuner>` ioctls if they have these
+capabilities, and they may support :ref:`control <control>` ioctls.
+The :ref:`video standard <standard>` ioctls provide information vital
+to program a sliced VBI device, therefore must be supported.
+
+
+.. _sliced-vbi-format-negotitation:
+
+Sliced VBI Format Negotiation
+=============================
+
+To find out which data services are supported by the hardware
+applications can call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP <vidioc-g-sliced-vbi-cap>` ioctl.
+All drivers implementing the sliced VBI interface must support this
+ioctl. The results may differ from those of the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl when the number of VBI
+lines the hardware can capture or output per frame, or the number of
+services it can identify on a given line are limited. For example on PAL
+line 16 the hardware may be able to look for a VPS or Teletext signal,
+but not both at the same time.
+
+To determine the currently selected services applications set the
+``type`` field of struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` to
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_CAPTURE`` or
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_OUTPUT``, and the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl fills the ``fmt.sliced``
+member, a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_sliced_vbi_format <v4l2-sliced-vbi-format>`.
+
+Applications can request different parameters by initializing or
+modifying the ``fmt.sliced`` member and calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl with a pointer to the
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_format` structure.
+
+The sliced VBI API is more complicated than the raw VBI API because the
+hardware must be told which VBI service to expect on each scan line. Not
+all services may be supported by the hardware on all lines (this is
+especially true for VBI output where Teletext is often unsupported and
+other services can only be inserted in one specific line). In many
+cases, however, it is sufficient to just set the ``service_set`` field
+to the required services and let the driver fill the ``service_lines``
+array according to hardware capabilities. Only if more precise control
+is needed should the programmer set the ``service_lines`` array
+explicitly.
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl modifies the parameters
+according to hardware capabilities. When the driver allocates resources
+at this point, it may return an EBUSY error code if the required
+resources are temporarily unavailable. Other resource allocation points
+which may return EBUSY can be the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl and the first
+:ref:`read() <func-read>`, :ref:`write() <func-write>` and
+:ref:`select() <func-select>` call.

+
+ If ``service_set`` is non-zero when passed with
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` or
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`, the ``service_lines``
+ array will be filled by the driver according to the services
+ specified in this field. For example, if ``service_set`` is
+ initialized with ``V4L2_SLICED_TELETEXT_B | V4L2_SLICED_WSS_625``,
+ a driver for the cx25840 video decoder sets lines 7-22 of both
+ fields [1]_ to ``V4L2_SLICED_TELETEXT_B`` and line 23 of the first
+ field to ``V4L2_SLICED_WSS_625``. If ``service_set`` is set to
+ zero, then the values of ``service_lines`` will be used instead.
+
+ On return the driver sets this field to the union of all elements
+ of the returned ``service_lines`` array. It may contain less
+ services than requested, perhaps just one, if the hardware cannot
+ handle more services simultaneously. It may be empty (zero) if

+of :c:type:`struct v4l2_sliced_vbi_data` structures with one or
+more elements and a total size not exceeding ``io_size`` bytes. Likewise
+in streaming I/O mode one buffer of ``io_size`` bytes must contain data
+of one video frame. The ``id`` of unused
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_sliced_vbi_data` elements must be zero.

+
+ - The packet payload. See :ref:`vbi-services` for the contents and
+ number of bytes passed for each data type. The contents of padding
+ bytes at the end of this array are undefined, drivers and
+ applications shall ignore them.
+
+
+Packets are always passed in ascending line number order, without
+duplicate line numbers. The :ref:`write() <func-write>` function and
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl must return an EINVAL
+error code when applications violate this rule. They must also return an
+EINVAL error code when applications pass an incorrect field or line
+number, or a combination of ``field``, ``line`` and ``id`` which has not
+been negotiated with the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. When the line numbers are
+unknown the driver must pass the packets in transmitted order. The
+driver can insert empty packets with ``id`` set to zero anywhere in the
+packet array.
+
+To assure synchronization and to distinguish from frame dropping, when a
+captured frame does not carry any of the requested data services drivers
+must pass one or more empty packets. When an application fails to pass
+VBI data in time for output, the driver must output the last VPS and WSS
+packet again, and disable the output of Closed Caption and Teletext
+data, or output data which is ignored by Closed Caption and Teletext
+decoders.
+
+A sliced VBI device may support :ref:`read/write <rw>` and/or
+streaming (:ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` and/or
+:ref:`user pointer <userp>`) I/O. The latter bears the possibility of
+synchronizing video and VBI data by using buffer timestamps.
+
+
+Sliced VBI Data in MPEG Streams
+===============================
+
+If a device can produce an MPEG output stream, it may be capable of
+providing
+:ref:`negotiated sliced VBI services <sliced-vbi-format-negotitation>`
+as data embedded in the MPEG stream. Users or applications control this
+sliced VBI data insertion with the
+:ref:`V4L2_CID_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+control.
+
+If the driver does not provide the
+:ref:`V4L2_CID_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+control, or only allows that control to be set to
+:ref:`V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_NONE <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`,
+then the device cannot embed sliced VBI data in the MPEG stream.
+
+The
+:ref:`V4L2_CID_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+control does not implicitly set the device driver to capture nor cease
+capturing sliced VBI data. The control only indicates to embed sliced
+VBI data in the MPEG stream, if an application has negotiated sliced VBI
+service be captured.
+
+It may also be the case that a device can embed sliced VBI data in only
+certain types of MPEG streams: for example in an MPEG-2 PS but not an
+MPEG-2 TS. In this situation, if sliced VBI data insertion is requested,
+the sliced VBI data will be embedded in MPEG stream types when
+supported, and silently omitted from MPEG stream types where sliced VBI
+data insertion is not supported by the device.
+
+The following subsections specify the format of the embedded sliced VBI
+data.
+
+
+MPEG Stream Embedded, Sliced VBI Data Format: NONE
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+The
+:ref:`V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_NONE <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+embedded sliced VBI format shall be interpreted by drivers as a control
+to cease embedding sliced VBI data in MPEG streams. Neither the device
+nor driver shall insert "empty" embedded sliced VBI data packets in the
+MPEG stream when this format is set. No MPEG stream data structures are
+specified for this format.
+
+
+MPEG Stream Embedded, Sliced VBI Data Format: IVTV
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+The
+:ref:`V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+embedded sliced VBI format, when supported, indicates to the driver to
+embed up to 36 lines of sliced VBI data per frame in an MPEG-2 *Private
+Stream 1 PES* packet encapsulated in an MPEG-2 *Program Pack* in the
+MPEG stream.
+
+*Historical context*: This format specification originates from a
+custom, embedded, sliced VBI data format used by the ``ivtv`` driver.
+This format has already been informally specified in the kernel sources
+in the file ``Documentation/video4linux/cx2341x/README.vbi`` . The
+maximum size of the payload and other aspects of this format are driven
+by the CX23415 MPEG decoder's capabilities and limitations with respect
+to extracting, decoding, and displaying sliced VBI data embedded within
+an MPEG stream.
+
+This format's use is *not* exclusive to the ``ivtv`` driver *nor*
+exclusive to CX2341x devices, as the sliced VBI data packet insertion
+into the MPEG stream is implemented in driver software. At least the
+``cx18`` driver provides sliced VBI data insertion into an MPEG-2 PS in
+this format as well.
+
+The following definitions specify the payload of the MPEG-2 *Private
+Stream 1 PES* packets that contain sliced VBI data when
+:ref:`V4L2_MPEG_STREAM_VBI_FMT_IVTV <v4l2-mpeg-stream-vbi-fmt>`
+is set. (The MPEG-2 *Private Stream 1 PES* packet header and
+encapsulating MPEG-2 *Program Pack* header are not detailed here. Please
+refer to the MPEG-2 specifications for details on those packet headers.)
+
+The payload of the MPEG-2 *Private Stream 1 PES* packets that contain
+sliced VBI data is specified by struct
+:ref:`v4l2_mpeg_vbi_fmt_ivtv <v4l2-mpeg-vbi-fmt-ivtv>`. The
+payload is variable length, depending on the actual number of lines of
+sliced VBI data present in a video frame. The payload may be padded at
+the end with unspecified fill bytes to align the end of the payload to a
+4-byte boundary. The payload shall never exceed 1552 bytes (2 fields
+with 18 lines/field with 43 bytes of data/line and a 4 byte magic
+number).

+********************
+Sub-device Interface
+********************
+
+The complex nature of V4L2 devices, where hardware is often made of
+several integrated circuits that need to interact with each other in a
+controlled way, leads to complex V4L2 drivers. The drivers usually
+reflect the hardware model in software, and model the different hardware
+components as software blocks called sub-devices.
+
+V4L2 sub-devices are usually kernel-only objects. If the V4L2 driver
+implements the media device API, they will automatically inherit from
+media entities. Applications will be able to enumerate the sub-devices
+and discover the hardware topology using the media entities, pads and
+links enumeration API.
+
+In addition to make sub-devices discoverable, drivers can also choose to
+make them directly configurable by applications. When both the
+sub-device driver and the V4L2 device driver support this, sub-devices
+will feature a character device node on which ioctls can be called to
+
+- query, read and write sub-devices controls
+
+- subscribe and unsubscribe to events and retrieve them
+
+- negotiate image formats on individual pads
+
+Sub-device character device nodes, conventionally named
+``/dev/v4l-subdev*``, use major number 81.
+
+
+Controls
+========
+
+Most V4L2 controls are implemented by sub-device hardware. Drivers
+usually merge all controls and expose them through video device nodes.
+Applications can control all sub-devices through a single interface.
+
+Complex devices sometimes implement the same control in different pieces
+of hardware. This situation is common in embedded platforms, where both
+sensors and image processing hardware implement identical functions,
+such as contrast adjustment, white balance or faulty pixels correction.
+As the V4L2 controls API doesn't support several identical controls in a
+single device, all but one of the identical controls are hidden.
+
+Applications can access those hidden controls through the sub-device
+node with the V4L2 control API described in :ref:`control`. The ioctls
+behave identically as when issued on V4L2 device nodes, with the
+exception that they deal only with controls implemented in the
+sub-device.
+
+Depending on the driver, those controls might also be exposed through
+one (or several) V4L2 device nodes.
+
+
+Events
+======
+
+V4L2 sub-devices can notify applications of events as described in
+:ref:`event`. The API behaves identically as when used on V4L2 device
+nodes, with the exception that it only deals with events generated by
+the sub-device. Depending on the driver, those events might also be
+reported on one (or several) V4L2 device nodes.
+
+
+.. _pad-level-formats:
+
+Pad-level Formats
+=================
+
+ **Warning**
+
+ Pad-level formats are only applicable to very complex device that
+ need to expose low-level format configuration to user space. Generic
+ V4L2 applications do *not* need to use the API described in this
+ section.
+
+ **Note**
+
+ For the purpose of this section, the term *format* means the
+ combination of media bus data format, frame width and frame height.
+
+Image formats are typically negotiated on video capture and output
+devices using the format and
+:ref:`selection <vidioc-subdev-g-selection>` ioctls. The driver is
+responsible for configuring every block in the video pipeline according
+to the requested format at the pipeline input and/or output.
+
+For complex devices, such as often found in embedded systems, identical
+image sizes at the output of a pipeline can be achieved using different
+hardware configurations. One such example is shown on
+:ref:`pipeline-scaling`, where image scaling can be performed on both
+the video sensor and the host image processing hardware.
+
+
+.. _pipeline-scaling:
+
+.. figure:: dev-subdev_files/pipeline.*
+ :alt: pipeline.pdf / pipeline.png
+ :align: center
+
+ Image Format Negotiation on Pipelines
+
+ High quality and high speed pipeline configuration
+
+
+
+The sensor scaler is usually of less quality than the host scaler, but
+scaling on the sensor is required to achieve higher frame rates.
+Depending on the use case (quality vs. speed), the pipeline must be
+configured differently. Applications need to configure the formats at
+every point in the pipeline explicitly.
+
+Drivers that implement the :ref:`media API <media-controller-intro>`
+can expose pad-level image format configuration to applications. When
+they do, applications can use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` ioctls. to
+negotiate formats on a per-pad basis.
+
+Applications are responsible for configuring coherent parameters on the
+whole pipeline and making sure that connected pads have compatible
+formats. The pipeline is checked for formats mismatch at
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` time, and an EPIPE error
+code is then returned if the configuration is invalid.
+
+Pad-level image format configuration support can be tested by calling
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` ioctl on pad
+0. If the driver returns an EINVAL error code pad-level format
+configuration is not supported by the sub-device.
+
+
+Format Negotiation
+------------------
+
+Acceptable formats on pads can (and usually do) depend on a number of
+external parameters, such as formats on other pads, active links, or
+even controls. Finding a combination of formats on all pads in a video
+pipeline, acceptable to both application and driver, can't rely on
+formats enumeration only. A format negotiation mechanism is required.
+
+Central to the format negotiation mechanism are the get/set format
+operations. When called with the ``which`` argument set to
+``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY``, the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` ioctls operate on
+a set of formats parameters that are not connected to the hardware
+configuration. Modifying those 'try' formats leaves the device state
+untouched (this applies to both the software state stored in the driver
+and the hardware state stored in the device itself).
+
+While not kept as part of the device state, try formats are stored in
+the sub-device file handles. A
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` call will return
+the last try format set *on the same sub-device file handle*. Several
+applications querying the same sub-device at the same time will thus not
+interact with each other.
+
+To find out whether a particular format is supported by the device,
+applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` ioctl. Drivers
+verify and, if needed, change the requested ``format`` based on device
+requirements and return the possibly modified value. Applications can
+then choose to try a different format or accept the returned value and
+continue.
+
+Formats returned by the driver during a negotiation iteration are
+guaranteed to be supported by the device. In particular, drivers
+guarantee that a returned format will not be further changed if passed
+to an :ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` call as-is
+(as long as external parameters, such as formats on other pads or links'
+configuration are not changed).
+
+Drivers automatically propagate formats inside sub-devices. When a try
+or active format is set on a pad, corresponding formats on other pads of
+the same sub-device can be modified by the driver. Drivers are free to
+modify formats as required by the device. However, they should comply
+with the following rules when possible:
+
+- Formats should be propagated from sink pads to source pads. Modifying
+ a format on a source pad should not modify the format on any sink
+ pad.
+
+- Sub-devices that scale frames using variable scaling factors should
+ reset the scale factors to default values when sink pads formats are
+ modified. If the 1:1 scaling ratio is supported, this means that
+ source pads formats should be reset to the sink pads formats.
+
+Formats are not propagated across links, as that would involve
+propagating them from one sub-device file handle to another.
+Applications must then take care to configure both ends of every link
+explicitly with compatible formats. Identical formats on the two ends of
+a link are guaranteed to be compatible. Drivers are free to accept
+different formats matching device requirements as being compatible.

+
+1. Initial state. The sensor source pad format is set to its native 3MP
+ size and V4L2_MBUS_FMT_SGRBG8_1X8 media bus code. Formats on the
+ host frontend and scaler sink and source pads have the default
+ values, as well as the compose rectangle on the scaler's sink pad.
+
+2. The application configures the frontend sink pad format's size to
+ 2048x1536 and its media bus code to V4L2_MBUS_FMT_SGRBG_1X8. The
+ driver propagates the format to the frontend source pad.
+
+3. The application configures the scaler sink pad format's size to
+ 2046x1534 and the media bus code to V4L2_MBUS_FMT_SGRBG_1X8 to
+ match the frontend source size and media bus code. The media bus code
+ on the sink pad is set to V4L2_MBUS_FMT_SGRBG_1X8. The driver
+ propagates the size to the compose selection rectangle on the
+ scaler's sink pad, and the format to the scaler source pad.
+
+4. The application configures the size of the compose selection
+ rectangle of the scaler's sink pad 1280x960. The driver propagates
+ the size to the scaler's source pad format.
+
+When satisfied with the try results, applications can set the active
+formats by setting the ``which`` argument to
+``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_ACTIVE``. Active formats are changed exactly as try
+formats by drivers. To avoid modifying the hardware state during format
+negotiation, applications should negotiate try formats first and then
+modify the active settings using the try formats returned during the
+last negotiation iteration. This guarantees that the active format will
+be applied as-is by the driver without being modified.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-subdev-selections:
+
+Selections: cropping, scaling and composition
+---------------------------------------------
+
+Many sub-devices support cropping frames on their input or output pads
+(or possible even on both). Cropping is used to select the area of
+interest in an image, typically on an image sensor or a video decoder.
+It can also be used as part of digital zoom implementations to select
+the area of the image that will be scaled up.
+
+Crop settings are defined by a crop rectangle and represented in a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` by the coordinates of the top
+left corner and the rectangle size. Both the coordinates and sizes are
+expressed in pixels.
+
+As for pad formats, drivers store try and active rectangles for the
+selection targets :ref:`v4l2-selections-common`.
+
+On sink pads, cropping is applied relative to the current pad format.
+The pad format represents the image size as received by the sub-device
+from the previous block in the pipeline, and the crop rectangle
+represents the sub-image that will be transmitted further inside the
+sub-device for processing.
+
+The scaling operation changes the size of the image by scaling it to new
+dimensions. The scaling ratio isn't specified explicitly, but is implied
+from the original and scaled image sizes. Both sizes are represented by
+struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>`.
+
+Scaling support is optional. When supported by a subdev, the crop
+rectangle on the subdev's sink pad is scaled to the size configured
+using the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_SELECTION <vidioc-subdev-g-selection>` IOCTL
+using ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` selection target on the same pad. If the
+subdev supports scaling but not composing, the top and left values are
+not used and must always be set to zero.
+
+On source pads, cropping is similar to sink pads, with the exception
+that the source size from which the cropping is performed, is the
+COMPOSE rectangle on the sink pad. In both sink and source pads, the
+crop rectangle must be entirely contained inside the source image size
+for the crop operation.
+
+The drivers should always use the closest possible rectangle the user
+requests on all selection targets, unless specifically told otherwise.
+``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_GE`` and ``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_LE`` flags may be used to round
+the image size either up or down. :ref:`v4l2-selection-flags`
+
+
+Types of selection targets
+--------------------------
+
+
+Actual targets
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Actual targets (without a postfix) reflect the actual hardware
+configuration at any point of time. There is a BOUNDS target
+corresponding to every actual target.
+
+
+BOUNDS targets
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+BOUNDS targets is the smallest rectangle that contains all valid actual
+rectangles. It may not be possible to set the actual rectangle as large
+as the BOUNDS rectangle, however. This may be because e.g. a sensor's
+pixel array is not rectangular but cross-shaped or round. The maximum
+size may also be smaller than the BOUNDS rectangle.
+
+
+Order of configuration and format propagation
+---------------------------------------------
+
+Inside subdevs, the order of image processing steps will always be from
+the sink pad towards the source pad. This is also reflected in the order
+in which the configuration must be performed by the user: the changes
+made will be propagated to any subsequent stages. If this behaviour is
+not desired, the user must set ``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_KEEP_CONFIG`` flag. This
+flag causes no propagation of the changes are allowed in any
+circumstances. This may also cause the accessed rectangle to be adjusted
+by the driver, depending on the properties of the underlying hardware.
+
+The coordinates to a step always refer to the actual size of the
+previous step. The exception to this rule is the source compose
+rectangle, which refers to the sink compose bounds rectangle --- if it
+is supported by the hardware.
+
+1. Sink pad format. The user configures the sink pad format. This format
+ defines the parameters of the image the entity receives through the
+ pad for further processing.
+
+2. Sink pad actual crop selection. The sink pad crop defines the crop
+ performed to the sink pad format.
+
+3. Sink pad actual compose selection. The size of the sink pad compose
+ rectangle defines the scaling ratio compared to the size of the sink
+ pad crop rectangle. The location of the compose rectangle specifies
+ the location of the actual sink compose rectangle in the sink compose
+ bounds rectangle.
+
+4. Source pad actual crop selection. Crop on the source pad defines crop
+ performed to the image in the sink compose bounds rectangle.
+
+5. Source pad format. The source pad format defines the output pixel
+ format of the subdev, as well as the other parameters with the
+ exception of the image width and height. Width and height are defined
+ by the size of the source pad actual crop selection.
+
+Accessing any of the above rectangles not supported by the subdev will
+return ``EINVAL``. Any rectangle referring to a previous unsupported
+rectangle coordinates will instead refer to the previous supported
+rectangle. For example, if sink crop is not supported, the compose
+selection will refer to the sink pad format dimensions instead.

+ :align: center
+
+ Image processing in subdevs: simple crop example
+
+In the above example, the subdev supports cropping on its sink pad. To
+configure it, the user sets the media bus format on the subdev's sink
+pad. Now the actual crop rectangle can be set on the sink pad --- the
+location and size of this rectangle reflect the location and size of a
+rectangle to be cropped from the sink format. The size of the sink crop
+rectangle will also be the size of the format of the subdev's source
+pad.

+ :align: center
+
+ Image processing in subdevs: scaling with multiple sources
+
+In this example, the subdev is capable of first cropping, then scaling
+and finally cropping for two source pads individually from the resulting
+scaled image. The location of the scaled image in the cropped image is
+ignored in sink compose target. Both of the locations of the source crop
+rectangles refer to the sink scaling rectangle, independently cropping
+an area at location specified by the source crop rectangle from it.
+
+
+.. _subdev-image-processing-full:

+.. figure:: dev-subdev_files/subdev-image-processing-full.*
+ :alt: subdev-image-processing-full.svg
+ :align: center
+
+ Image processing in subdevs: scaling and composition with multiple sinks and sources
+
+The subdev driver supports two sink pads and two source pads. The images
+from both of the sink pads are individually cropped, then scaled and
+further composed on the composition bounds rectangle. From that, two
+independent streams are cropped and sent out of the subdev from the
+source pads.

+******************
+Teletext Interface
+******************
+
+This interface was aimed at devices receiving and demodulating Teletext
+data [:ref:`ets300706`, :ref:`itu653`], evaluating the Teletext
+packages and storing formatted pages in cache memory. Such devices are
+usually implemented as microcontrollers with serial interface
+(I:sup:`2`\ C) and could be found on old TV cards, dedicated Teletext
+decoding cards and home-brew devices connected to the PC parallel port.
+
+The Teletext API was designed by Martin Buck. It was defined in the
+kernel header file ``linux/videotext.h``, the specification is available
+from
+`ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/videotext/ <ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/videotext/>`__.
+(Videotext is the name of the German public television Teletext
+service.)
+
+Eventually the Teletext API was integrated into the V4L API with
+character device file names ``/dev/vtx0`` to ``/dev/vtx31``, device
+major number 81, minor numbers 192 to 223.
+
+However, teletext decoders were quickly replaced by more generic VBI
+demodulators and those dedicated teletext decoders no longer exist. For
+many years the vtx devices were still around, even though nobody used
+them. So the decision was made to finally remove support for the
+Teletext API in kernel 2.6.37.
+
+Modern devices all use the :ref:`raw <raw-vbi>` or
+:ref:`sliced <sliced>` VBI API.

+********************************
+Differences between V4L and V4L2
+********************************
+
+The Video For Linux API was first introduced in Linux 2.1 to unify and
+replace various TV and radio device related interfaces, developed
+independently by driver writers in prior years. Starting with Linux 2.5
+the much improved V4L2 API replaces the V4L API. The support for the old
+V4L calls were removed from Kernel, but the library :ref:`libv4l`
+supports the conversion of a V4L API system call into a V4L2 one.
+
+
+Opening and Closing Devices
+===========================
+
+For compatibility reasons the character device file names recommended
+for V4L2 video capture, overlay, radio and raw vbi capture devices did
+not change from those used by V4L. They are listed in :ref:`devices`
+and below in :ref:`v4l-dev`.
+
+The teletext devices (minor range 192-223) have been removed in V4L2 and
+no longer exist. There is no hardware available anymore for handling
+pure teletext. Instead raw or sliced VBI is used.
+
+The V4L ``videodev`` module automatically assigns minor numbers to
+drivers in load order, depending on the registered device type. We
+recommend that V4L2 drivers by default register devices with the same
+numbers, but the system administrator can assign arbitrary minor numbers
+using driver module options. The major device number remains 81.

+
+V4L drivers respond to V4L2 ioctls with an EINVAL error code.
+
+
+Querying Capabilities
+=====================
+
+The V4L ``VIDIOCGCAP`` ioctl is equivalent to V4L2's
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>`.
+
+The ``name`` field in struct :c:type:`struct video_capability` became
+``card`` in struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>`, ``type``
+was replaced by ``capabilities``. Note V4L2 does not distinguish between
+device types like this, better think of basic video input, video output
+and radio devices supporting a set of related functions like video
+capturing, video overlay and VBI capturing. See :ref:`open` for an
+introduction.

+
+
+The ``audios`` field was replaced by ``capabilities`` flag
+``V4L2_CAP_AUDIO``, indicating *if* the device has any audio inputs or
+outputs. To determine their number applications can enumerate audio
+inputs with the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` ioctl. The
+audio ioctls are described in :ref:`audio`.
+
+The ``maxwidth``, ``maxheight``, ``minwidth`` and ``minheight`` fields
+were removed. Calling the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl with the desired
+dimensions returns the closest size possible, taking into account the
+current video standard, cropping and scaling limitations.
+
+
+Video Sources
+=============
+
+V4L provides the ``VIDIOCGCHAN`` and ``VIDIOCSCHAN`` ioctl using struct
+:c:type:`struct video_channel` to enumerate the video inputs of a V4L
+device. The equivalent V4L2 ioctls are
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` using struct
+:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` as discussed in :ref:`video`.
+
+The ``channel`` field counting inputs was renamed to ``index``, the
+video input types were renamed as follows:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 1
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - struct :c:type:`struct video_channel` ``type``
+
+ - struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` ``type``
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - ``VIDEO_TYPE_TV``
+
+ - ``V4L2_INPUT_TYPE_TUNER``
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - ``VIDEO_TYPE_CAMERA``
+
+ - ``V4L2_INPUT_TYPE_CAMERA``
+
+
+Unlike the ``tuners`` field expressing the number of tuners of this
+input, V4L2 assumes each video input is connected to at most one tuner.
+However a tuner can have more than one input, i. e. RF connectors, and a
+device can have multiple tuners. The index number of the tuner
+associated with the input, if any, is stored in field ``tuner`` of
+struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`. Enumeration of tuners is
+discussed in :ref:`tuner`.
+
+The redundant ``VIDEO_VC_TUNER`` flag was dropped. Video inputs
+associated with a tuner are of type ``V4L2_INPUT_TYPE_TUNER``. The
+``VIDEO_VC_AUDIO`` flag was replaced by the ``audioset`` field. V4L2
+considers devices with up to 32 audio inputs. Each set bit in the
+``audioset`` field represents one audio input this video input combines
+with. For information about audio inputs and how to switch between them
+see :ref:`audio`.
+
+The ``norm`` field describing the supported video standards was replaced
+by ``std``. The V4L specification mentions a flag ``VIDEO_VC_NORM``
+indicating whether the standard can be changed. This flag was a later
+addition together with the ``norm`` field and has been removed in the
+meantime. V4L2 has a similar, albeit more comprehensive approach to
+video standards, see :ref:`standard` for more information.
+
+
+Tuning
+======
+
+The V4L ``VIDIOCGTUNER`` and ``VIDIOCSTUNER`` ioctl and struct
+:c:type:`struct video_tuner` can be used to enumerate the tuners of a
+V4L TV or radio device. The equivalent V4L2 ioctls are
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` using struct
+:ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>`. Tuners are covered in :ref:`tuner`.
+
+The ``tuner`` field counting tuners was renamed to ``index``. The fields
+``name``, ``rangelow`` and ``rangehigh`` remained unchanged.
+
+The ``VIDEO_TUNER_PAL``, ``VIDEO_TUNER_NTSC`` and ``VIDEO_TUNER_SECAM``
+flags indicating the supported video standards were dropped. This
+information is now contained in the associated struct
+:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`. No replacement exists for the
+``VIDEO_TUNER_NORM`` flag indicating whether the video standard can be
+switched. The ``mode`` field to select a different video standard was
+replaced by a whole new set of ioctls and structures described in
+:ref:`standard`. Due to its ubiquity it should be mentioned the BTTV
+driver supports several standards in addition to the regular
+``VIDEO_MODE_PAL`` (0), ``VIDEO_MODE_NTSC``, ``VIDEO_MODE_SECAM`` and
+``VIDEO_MODE_AUTO`` (3). Namely N/PAL Argentina, M/PAL, N/PAL, and NTSC
+Japan with numbers 3-6 (sic).
+
+The ``VIDEO_TUNER_STEREO_ON`` flag indicating stereo reception became
+``V4L2_TUNER_SUB_STEREO`` in field ``rxsubchans``. This field also
+permits the detection of monaural and bilingual audio, see the
+definition of struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` for details.
+Presently no replacement exists for the ``VIDEO_TUNER_RDS_ON`` and
+``VIDEO_TUNER_MBS_ON`` flags.
+
+The ``VIDEO_TUNER_LOW`` flag was renamed to ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_LOW`` in
+the struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` ``capability`` field.
+
+The ``VIDIOCGFREQ`` and ``VIDIOCSFREQ`` ioctl to change the tuner
+frequency where renamed to
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>`. They take a pointer
+to a struct :ref:`v4l2_frequency <v4l2-frequency>` instead of an
+unsigned long integer.

+The V4L picture controls are assumed to range from 0 to 65535 with no
+particular reset value. The V4L2 API permits arbitrary limits and
+defaults which can be queried with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctl. For general
+information about controls see :ref:`control`.
+
+The ``depth`` (average number of bits per pixel) of a video image is
+implied by the selected image format. V4L2 does not explicitly provide
+such information assuming applications recognizing the format are aware
+of the image depth and others need not know. The ``palette`` field moved
+into the struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>`:

+V4L2 image formats are defined in :ref:`pixfmt`. The image format can
+be selected with the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+
+
+Audio
+=====
+
+The ``VIDIOCGAUDIO`` and ``VIDIOCSAUDIO`` ioctl and struct
+:c:type:`struct video_audio` are used to enumerate the audio inputs
+of a V4L device. The equivalent V4L2 ioctls are
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` using struct
+:ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` as discussed in :ref:`audio`.
+
+The ``audio`` "channel number" field counting audio inputs was renamed
+to ``index``.
+
+On ``VIDIOCSAUDIO`` the ``mode`` field selects *one* of the
+``VIDEO_SOUND_MONO``, ``VIDEO_SOUND_STEREO``, ``VIDEO_SOUND_LANG1`` or
+``VIDEO_SOUND_LANG2`` audio demodulation modes. When the current audio
+standard is BTSC ``VIDEO_SOUND_LANG2`` refers to SAP and
+``VIDEO_SOUND_LANG1`` is meaningless. Also undocumented in the V4L
+specification, there is no way to query the selected mode. On
+``VIDIOCGAUDIO`` the driver returns the *actually received* audio
+programmes in this field. In the V4L2 API this information is stored in
+the struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` ``rxsubchans`` and
+``audmode`` fields, respectively. See :ref:`tuner` for more
+information on tuners. Related to audio modes struct
+:ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` also reports if this is a mono or
+stereo input, regardless if the source is a tuner.
+
+The following fields where replaced by V4L2 controls accessible with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` ioctls:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 1
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - struct :c:type:`struct video_audio`
+
+ - V4L2 Control ID
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - ``volume``
+
+ - ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME``
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - ``bass``
+
+ - ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_BASS``
+
+ - .. row 4
+
+ - ``treble``
+
+ - ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_TREBLE``
+
+ - .. row 5
+
+ - ``balance``
+
+ - ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_BALANCE``
+
+
+To determine which of these controls are supported by a driver V4L
+provides the ``flags`` ``VIDEO_AUDIO_VOLUME``, ``VIDEO_AUDIO_BASS``,
+``VIDEO_AUDIO_TREBLE`` and ``VIDEO_AUDIO_BALANCE``. In the V4L2 API the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctl reports if the
+respective control is supported. Accordingly the ``VIDEO_AUDIO_MUTABLE``
+and ``VIDEO_AUDIO_MUTE`` flags where replaced by the boolean
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE`` control.
+
+All V4L2 controls have a ``step`` attribute replacing the struct
+:c:type:`struct video_audio` ``step`` field. The V4L audio controls
+are assumed to range from 0 to 65535 with no particular reset value. The
+V4L2 API permits arbitrary limits and defaults which can be queried with
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctl. For general
+information about controls see :ref:`control`.
+
+
+Frame Buffer Overlay
+====================
+
+The V4L2 ioctls equivalent to ``VIDIOCGFBUF`` and ``VIDIOCSFBUF`` are
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`. The ``base`` field of struct
+:c:type:`struct video_buffer` remained unchanged, except V4L2 defines
+a flag to indicate non-destructive overlays instead of a ``NULL``
+pointer. All other fields moved into the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` ``fmt`` substructure of
+struct :ref:`v4l2_framebuffer <v4l2-framebuffer>`. The ``depth``
+field was replaced by ``pixelformat``. See :ref:`pixfmt-rgb` for a
+list of RGB formats and their respective color depths.
+
+Instead of the special ioctls ``VIDIOCGWIN`` and ``VIDIOCSWIN`` V4L2
+uses the general-purpose data format negotiation ioctls
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`. They take a pointer to a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` as argument. Here the ``win`` member
+of the ``fmt`` union is used, a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`.
+
+The ``x``, ``y``, ``width`` and ``height`` fields of struct
+:c:type:`struct video_window` moved into struct
+:ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` substructure ``w`` of struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_window`. The ``chromakey``, ``clips``, and
+``clipcount`` fields remained unchanged. Struct
+:c:type:`struct video_clip` was renamed to struct
+:ref:`v4l2_clip <v4l2-clip>`, also containing a struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_rect`, but the semantics are still the same.
+
+The ``VIDEO_WINDOW_INTERLACE`` flag was dropped. Instead applications
+must set the ``field`` field to ``V4L2_FIELD_ANY`` or
+``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED``. The ``VIDEO_WINDOW_CHROMAKEY`` flag moved
+into struct :ref:`v4l2_framebuffer <v4l2-framebuffer>`, under the new
+name ``V4L2_FBUF_FLAG_CHROMAKEY``.
+
+In V4L, storing a bitmap pointer in ``clips`` and setting ``clipcount``
+to ``VIDEO_CLIP_BITMAP`` (-1) requests bitmap clipping, using a fixed
+size bitmap of 1024 × 625 bits. Struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_window`
+has a separate ``bitmap`` pointer field for this purpose and the bitmap
+size is determined by ``w.width`` and ``w.height``.
+
+The ``VIDIOCCAPTURE`` ioctl to enable or disable overlay was renamed to
+:ref:`VIDIOC_OVERLAY <vidioc-overlay>`.
+
+
+Cropping
+========
+
+To capture only a subsection of the full picture V4L defines the
+``VIDIOCGCAPTURE`` and ``VIDIOCSCAPTURE`` ioctls using struct
+:c:type:`struct video_capture`. The equivalent V4L2 ioctls are
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CROP <vidioc-g-crop>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CROP <vidioc-g-crop>` using struct
+:ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>`, and the related
+:ref:`VIDIOC_CROPCAP <vidioc-cropcap>` ioctl. This is a rather
+complex matter, see :ref:`crop` for details.
+
+The ``x``, ``y``, ``width`` and ``height`` fields moved into struct
+:ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` substructure ``c`` of struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_crop`. The ``decimation`` field was dropped. In
+the V4L2 API the scaling factor is implied by the size of the cropping
+rectangle and the size of the captured or overlaid image.
+
+The ``VIDEO_CAPTURE_ODD`` and ``VIDEO_CAPTURE_EVEN`` flags to capture
+only the odd or even field, respectively, were replaced by
+``V4L2_FIELD_TOP`` and ``V4L2_FIELD_BOTTOM`` in the field named
+``field`` of struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` and
+struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`. These structures are used to
+select a capture or overlay format with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl.
+
+
+Reading Images, Memory Mapping
+==============================
+
+
+Capturing using the read method
+-------------------------------
+
+There is no essential difference between reading images from a V4L or
+V4L2 device using the :ref:`read() <func-read>` function, however V4L2
+drivers are not required to support this I/O method. Applications can
+determine if the function is available with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. All V4L2 devices
+exchanging data with applications must support the
+:ref:`select() <func-select>` and :ref:`poll() <func-poll>`
+functions.
+
+To select an image format and size, V4L provides the ``VIDIOCSPICT`` and
+``VIDIOCSWIN`` ioctls. V4L2 uses the general-purpose data format
+negotiation ioctls :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`. They take a pointer to a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` as argument, here the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` named ``pix`` of its
+``fmt`` union is used.
+
+For more information about the V4L2 read interface see :ref:`rw`.
+
+
+Capturing using memory mapping
+------------------------------
+
+Applications can read from V4L devices by mapping buffers in device
+memory, or more often just buffers allocated in DMA-able system memory,
+into their address space. This avoids the data copying overhead of the
+read method. V4L2 supports memory mapping as well, with a few
+differences.
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 1
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - V4L
+
+ - V4L2
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ -
+ - The image format must be selected before buffers are allocated,
+ with the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. When no
+ format is selected the driver may use the last, possibly by
+ another application requested format.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - Applications cannot change the number of buffers. The it is built
+ into the driver, unless it has a module option to change the
+ number when the driver module is loaded.
+
+ - The :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl allocates the
+ desired number of buffers, this is a required step in the
+ initialization sequence.
+
+ - .. row 4
+
+ - Drivers map all buffers as one contiguous range of memory. The
+ ``VIDIOCGMBUF`` ioctl is available to query the number of buffers,
+ the offset of each buffer from the start of the virtual file, and
+ the overall amount of memory used, which can be used as arguments
+ for the :ref:`mmap() <func-mmap>` function.
+
+ - Buffers are individually mapped. The offset and size of each
+ buffer can be determined with the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` ioctl.
+
+ - .. row 5
+
+ - The ``VIDIOCMCAPTURE`` ioctl prepares a buffer for capturing. It
+ also determines the image format for this buffer. The ioctl
+ returns immediately, eventually with an EAGAIN error code if no
+ video signal had been detected. When the driver supports more than
+ one buffer applications can call the ioctl multiple times and thus
+ have multiple outstanding capture requests.
+
+ The ``VIDIOCSYNC`` ioctl suspends execution until a particular
+ buffer has been filled.
+
+ - Drivers maintain an incoming and outgoing queue.
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` enqueues any empty buffer into
+ the incoming queue. Filled buffers are dequeued from the outgoing
+ queue with the :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. To wait
+ until filled buffers become available this function,
+ :ref:`select() <func-select>` or :ref:`poll() <func-poll>` can
+ be used. The :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl
+ must be called once after enqueuing one or more buffers to start
+ capturing. Its counterpart
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` stops capturing and
+ dequeues all buffers from both queues. Applications can query the
+ signal status, if known, with the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` ioctl.
+
+
+For a more in-depth discussion of memory mapping and examples, see
+:ref:`mmap`.
+
+
+Reading Raw VBI Data
+====================
+
+Originally the V4L API did not specify a raw VBI capture interface, only
+the device file ``/dev/vbi`` was reserved for this purpose. The only
+driver supporting this interface was the BTTV driver, de-facto defining
+the V4L VBI interface. Reading from the device yields a raw VBI image
+with the following parameters:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 1
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - struct :ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>`
+
+ - V4L, BTTV driver
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - sampling_rate
+
+ - 28636363 Hz NTSC (or any other 525-line standard); 35468950 Hz PAL
+ and SECAM (625-line standards)
+

+
+ - offset
+
+ - ?
+

+
+ - samples_per_line
+

+ - V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY. The last four bytes (a machine endianness
+ integer) contain a frame counter.
+

+
+ - 10, 273 NTSC; 22, 335 PAL and SECAM
+
+ - .. row 7
+
+ - count[]
+
+ - 16, 16 [9]_
+
+ - .. row 8
+
+ - flags
+
+ - 0
+
+
+Undocumented in the V4L specification, in Linux 2.3 the
+``VIDIOCGVBIFMT`` and ``VIDIOCSVBIFMT`` ioctls using struct
+:c:type:`struct vbi_format` were added to determine the VBI image
+parameters. These ioctls are only partially compatible with the V4L2 VBI
+interface specified in :ref:`raw-vbi`.
+
+An ``offset`` field does not exist, ``sample_format`` is supposed to be
+``VIDEO_PALETTE_RAW``, equivalent to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY``. The
+remaining fields are probably equivalent to struct
+:ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>`.
+
+Apparently only the Zoran (ZR 36120) driver implements these ioctls. The
+semantics differ from those specified for V4L2 in two ways. The
+parameters are reset on :ref:`open() <func-open>` and
+``VIDIOCSVBIFMT`` always returns an EINVAL error code if the parameters
+are invalid.
+
+
+Miscellaneous
+=============
+
+V4L2 has no equivalent of the ``VIDIOCGUNIT`` ioctl. Applications can
+find the VBI device associated with a video capture device (or vice
+versa) by reopening the device and requesting VBI data. For details see
+:ref:`open`.
+
+No replacement exists for ``VIDIOCKEY``, and the V4L functions for
+microcode programming. A new interface for MPEG compression and playback
+devices is documented in :ref:`extended-controls`.
+
+.. [1]
+ According to Documentation/devices.txt these should be symbolic links
+ to ``/dev/video0``. Note the original bttv interface is not
+ compatible with V4L or V4L2.
+
+.. [2]
+ According to ``Documentation/devices.txt`` a symbolic link to
+ ``/dev/radio0``.
+
+.. [3]
+ This is a custom format used by the BTTV driver, not one of the V4L2
+ standard formats.
+
+.. [4]
+ Presumably all V4L RGB formats are little-endian, although some
+ drivers might interpret them according to machine endianness. V4L2
+ defines little-endian, big-endian and red/blue swapped variants. For
+ details see :ref:`pixfmt-rgb`.
+
+.. [5]
+ ``VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV422`` and ``VIDEO_PALETTE_YUYV`` are the same
+ formats. Some V4L drivers respond to one, some to the other.
+
+.. [6]
+ Not to be confused with ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV411P``, which is a planar
+ format.
+
+.. [7]
+ V4L explains this as: "RAW capture (BT848)"
+
+.. [8]
+ Not to be confused with ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y41P``, which is a packed
+ format.
+
+.. [9]
+ Old driver versions used different values, eventually the custom
+ ``BTTV_VBISIZE`` ioctl was added to query the correct values.

+************************************
+Streaming I/O (DMA buffer importing)
+************************************
+
+The DMABUF framework provides a generic method for sharing buffers
+between multiple devices. Device drivers that support DMABUF can export
+a DMA buffer to userspace as a file descriptor (known as the exporter
+role), import a DMA buffer from userspace using a file descriptor
+previously exported for a different or the same device (known as the
+importer role), or both. This section describes the DMABUF importer role
+API in V4L2.
+
+Refer to :ref:`DMABUF exporting <vidioc-expbuf>` for details about
+exporting V4L2 buffers as DMABUF file descriptors.
+
+Input and output devices support the streaming I/O method when the
+``V4L2_CAP_STREAMING`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl is set. Whether
+importing DMA buffers through DMABUF file descriptors is supported is
+determined by calling the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>`
+ioctl with the memory type set to ``V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF``.
+
+This I/O method is dedicated to sharing DMA buffers between different
+devices, which may be V4L devices or other video-related devices (e.g.
+DRM). Buffers (planes) are allocated by a driver on behalf of an
+application. Next, these buffers are exported to the application as file
+descriptors using an API which is specific for an allocator driver. Only
+such file descriptor are exchanged. The descriptors and meta-information
+are passed in struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` (or in struct
+:ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` in the multi-planar API case). The
+driver must be switched into DMABUF I/O mode by calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` with the desired buffer type.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct v4l2_requestbuffers reqbuf;
+
+ memset(&reqbuf, 0, sizeof (reqbuf));
+ reqbuf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE;
+ reqbuf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF;
+ reqbuf.count = 1;
+
+ if (ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_REQBUFS, &reqbuf) == -1) {
+ if (errno == EINVAL)
+ printf("Video capturing or DMABUF streaming is not supported\\n");
+ else
+ perror("VIDIOC_REQBUFS");
+
+ exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+ }
+
+The buffer (plane) file descriptor is passed on the fly with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. In case of multiplanar
+buffers, every plane can be associated with a different DMABUF
+descriptor. Although buffers are commonly cycled, applications can pass
+a different DMABUF descriptor at each ``VIDIOC_QBUF`` call.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ int buffer_queue(int v4lfd, int index, int dmafd)
+ {
+ struct v4l2_buffer buf;
+
+ memset(&buf, 0, sizeof buf);
+ buf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE;
+ buf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF;
+ buf.index = index;
+ buf.m.fd = dmafd;
+
+ if (ioctl(v4lfd, VIDIOC_QBUF, &buf) == -1) {
+ perror("VIDIOC_QBUF");
+ return -1;
+ }
+
+ return 0;
+ }
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ int buffer_queue_mp(int v4lfd, int index, int dmafd[], int n_planes)
+ {
+ struct v4l2_buffer buf;
+ struct v4l2_plane planes[VIDEO_MAX_PLANES];
+ int i;
+
+ memset(&buf, 0, sizeof buf);
+ buf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE;
+ buf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF;
+ buf.index = index;
+ buf.m.planes = planes;
+ buf.length = n_planes;
+
+ memset(&planes, 0, sizeof planes);
+
+ for (i = 0; i < n_planes; ++i)
+ buf.m.planes[i].m.fd = dmafd[i];
+
+ if (ioctl(v4lfd, VIDIOC_QBUF, &buf) == -1) {
+ perror("VIDIOC_QBUF");
+ return -1;
+ }
+
+ return 0;
+ }
+
+Captured or displayed buffers are dequeued with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. The driver can unlock the
+buffer at any time between the completion of the DMA and this ioctl. The
+memory is also unlocked when
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` is called,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>`, or when the device is closed.
+
+For capturing applications it is customary to enqueue a number of empty
+buffers, to start capturing and enter the read loop. Here the
+application waits until a filled buffer can be dequeued, and re-enqueues
+the buffer when the data is no longer needed. Output applications fill
+and enqueue buffers, when enough buffers are stacked up output is
+started. In the write loop, when the application runs out of free
+buffers it must wait until an empty buffer can be dequeued and reused.
+Two methods exist to suspend execution of the application until one or
+more buffers can be dequeued. By default ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` blocks when no
+buffer is in the outgoing queue. When the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given
+to the :ref:`open() <func-open>` function, ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` returns
+immediately with an EAGAIN error code when no buffer is available. The
+:ref:`select() <func-select>` and :ref:`poll() <func-poll>`
+functions are always available.
+
+To start and stop capturing or displaying applications call the

+``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` removes all buffers from both queues and unlocks
+all buffers as a side effect. Since there is no notion of doing anything
+"now" on a multitasking system, if an application needs to synchronize
+with another event it should examine the struct

+
+Drivers implementing DMABUF importing I/O must support the

+``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` and ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` ioctls, and the
+:c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` functions.

+Digital Video (DV) Timings
+**************************
+
+The video standards discussed so far have been dealing with Analog TV
+and the corresponding video timings. Today there are many more different
+hardware interfaces such as High Definition TV interfaces (HDMI), VGA,
+DVI connectors etc., that carry video signals and there is a need to
+extend the API to select the video timings for these interfaces. Since
+it is not possible to extend the :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>`
+due to the limited bits available, a new set of ioctls was added to
+set/get video timings at the input and output.
+
+These ioctls deal with the detailed digital video timings that define
+each video format. This includes parameters such as the active video
+width and height, signal polarities, frontporches, backporches, sync
+widths etc. The ``linux/v4l2-dv-timings.h`` header can be used to get
+the timings of the formats in the :ref:`cea861` and :ref:`vesadmt`
+standards.
+
+To enumerate and query the attributes of the DV timings supported by a
+device applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_DV_TIMINGS <vidioc-enum-dv-timings>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DV_TIMINGS_CAP <vidioc-dv-timings-cap>` ioctls. To set
+DV timings for the device applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS <vidioc-g-dv-timings>` ioctl and to get
+current DV timings they use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS <vidioc-g-dv-timings>` ioctl. To detect
+the DV timings as seen by the video receiver applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS <vidioc-query-dv-timings>` ioctl.
+
+Applications can make use of the :ref:`input-capabilities` and
+:ref:`output-capabilities` flags to determine whether the digital
+video ioctls can be used with the given input or output.

+Extended Controls
+*****************
+
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The control mechanism as originally designed was meant to be used for
+user settings (brightness, saturation, etc). However, it turned out to
+be a very useful model for implementing more complicated driver APIs
+where each driver implements only a subset of a larger API.
+
+The MPEG encoding API was the driving force behind designing and
+implementing this extended control mechanism: the MPEG standard is quite
+large and the currently supported hardware MPEG encoders each only
+implement a subset of this standard. Further more, many parameters
+relating to how the video is encoded into an MPEG stream are specific to
+the MPEG encoding chip since the MPEG standard only defines the format
+of the resulting MPEG stream, not how the video is actually encoded into
+that format.
+
+Unfortunately, the original control API lacked some features needed for
+these new uses and so it was extended into the (not terribly originally
+named) extended control API.
+
+Even though the MPEG encoding API was the first effort to use the
+Extended Control API, nowadays there are also other classes of Extended
+Controls, such as Camera Controls and FM Transmitter Controls. The
+Extended Controls API as well as all Extended Controls classes are
+described in the following text.
+
+
+The Extended Control API
+========================
+
+Three new ioctls are available:
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>`. These ioctls act
+on arrays of controls (as opposed to the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` ioctls that act on a single
+control). This is needed since it is often required to atomically change
+several controls at once.
+
+Each of the new ioctls expects a pointer to a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_controls <v4l2-ext-controls>`. This structure
+contains a pointer to the control array, a count of the number of
+controls in that array and a control class. Control classes are used to
+group similar controls into a single class. For example, control class
+``V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_USER`` contains all user controls (i. e. all controls
+that can also be set using the old ``VIDIOC_S_CTRL`` ioctl). Control
+class ``V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG`` contains all controls relating to MPEG
+encoding, etc.
+
+All controls in the control array must belong to the specified control
+class. An error is returned if this is not the case.
+
+It is also possible to use an empty control array (count == 0) to check
+whether the specified control class is supported.
+
+The control array is a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` array. The
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_ext_control` structure is very similar to
+struct :ref:`v4l2_control <v4l2-control>`, except for the fact that
+it also allows for 64-bit values and pointers to be passed.
+
+Since the struct :ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` supports
+pointers it is now also possible to have controls with compound types
+such as N-dimensional arrays and/or structures. You need to specify the
+``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_COMPOUND`` when enumerating controls to actually
+be able to see such compound controls. In other words, these controls
+with compound types should only be used programmatically.
+
+Since such compound controls need to expose more information about
+themselves than is possible with
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctl was added. In
+particular, this ioctl gives the dimensions of the N-dimensional array
+if this control consists of more than one element.
+
+It is important to realize that due to the flexibility of controls it is
+necessary to check whether the control you want to set actually is
+supported in the driver and what the valid range of values is. So use
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` (or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>`) and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYMENU <vidioc-queryctrl>` ioctls to check this. Also
+note that it is possible that some of the menu indices in a control of
+type ``V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_MENU`` may not be supported (``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU``
+will return an error). A good example is the list of supported MPEG
+audio bitrates. Some drivers only support one or two bitrates, others
+support a wider range.
+
+All controls use machine endianness.
+
+
+Enumerating Extended Controls
+=============================
+
+The recommended way to enumerate over the extended controls is by using
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` in combination with the
+``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` flag:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct v4l2_queryctrl qctrl;
+
+ qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+ while (0 == ioctl (fd, VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL, &qctrl)) {
+ /* ... */
+ qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+ }
+
+The initial control ID is set to 0 ORed with the
+``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` flag. The ``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL`` ioctl will
+return the first control with a higher ID than the specified one. When
+no such controls are found an error is returned.
+
+If you want to get all controls within a specific control class, then
+you can set the initial ``qctrl.id`` value to the control class and add
+an extra check to break out of the loop when a control of another
+control class is found:
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ qctrl.id = V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG | V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+ while (0 == ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL, &qctrl)) {
+ if (V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS(qctrl.id) != V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG)
+ break;
+ /* ... */
+ qctrl.id |= V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL;
+ }
+
+The 32-bit ``qctrl.id`` value is subdivided into three bit ranges: the
+top 4 bits are reserved for flags (e. g. ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL``)
+and are not actually part of the ID. The remaining 28 bits form the
+control ID, of which the most significant 12 bits define the control
+class and the least significant 16 bits identify the control within the
+control class. It is guaranteed that these last 16 bits are always
+non-zero for controls. The range of 0x1000 and up are reserved for
+driver-specific controls. The macro ``V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS(id)`` returns
+the control class ID based on a control ID.
+
+If the driver does not support extended controls, then
+``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL`` will fail when used in combination with
+``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL``. In that case the old method of enumerating
+control should be used (see :ref:`enum_all_controls`). But if it is
+supported, then it is guaranteed to enumerate over all controls,
+including driver-private controls.
+
+
+Creating Control Panels
+=======================
+
+It is possible to create control panels for a graphical user interface
+where the user can select the various controls. Basically you will have
+to iterate over all controls using the method described above. Each
+control class starts with a control of type
+``V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_CTRL_CLASS``. ``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL`` will return the name
+of this control class which can be used as the title of a tab page
+within a control panel.
+
+The flags field of struct :ref:`v4l2_queryctrl <v4l2-queryctrl>` also
+contains hints on the behavior of the control. See the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` documentation for more
+details.
+
+
+.. _mpeg-controls:
+
+Codec Control Reference
+=======================
+
+Below all controls within the Codec control class are described. First
+the generic controls, then controls specific for certain hardware.
+
+Note: These controls are applicable to all codecs and not just MPEG. The
+defines are prefixed with V4L2_CID_MPEG/V4L2_MPEG as the controls
+were originally made for MPEG codecs and later extended to cover all
+encoding formats.

+
+``V4L2_CID_MPEG_MFC51_VIDEO_FRAME_SKIP_MODE (enum v4l2_mpeg_mfc51_video_frame_skip_mode)``
+ Indicates in what conditions the encoder should skip frames. If

+ Enable rate-control with fixed target bit. If this setting is
+ enabled, then the rate control logic of the encoder will calculate
+ the average bitrate for a GOP and keep it below or equal the set
+ bitrate target. Otherwise the rate control logic calculates the
+ overall average bitrate for the stream and keeps it below or equal
+ to the set bitrate. In the first case the average bitrate for the
+ whole stream will be smaller then the set bitrate. This is caused
+ because the average is calculated for smaller number of frames, on

+
+``V4L2_CID_WIDE_DYNAMIC_RANGE (boolean)``
+ Enables or disables the camera's wide dynamic range feature. This
+ feature allows to obtain clear images in situations where intensity
+ of the illumination varies significantly throughout the scene, i.e.
+ there are simultaneously very dark and very bright areas. It is most
+ commonly realized in cameras by combining two subsequent frames with

+
+.. _`v4l2-image-stabilization`:
+
+``V4L2_CID_IMAGE_STABILIZATION (boolean)``
+ Enables or disables image stabilization.
+
+``V4L2_CID_ISO_SENSITIVITY (integer menu)``
+ Determines ISO equivalent of an image sensor indicating the sensor's
+ sensitivity to light. The numbers are expressed in arithmetic scale,
+ as per :ref:`iso12232` standard, where doubling the sensor
+ sensitivity is represented by doubling the numerical ISO value.

+
+
+
+.. _`v4l2-scene-mode`:
+
+``V4L2_CID_SCENE_MODE (enum v4l2_scene_mode)``
+ This control allows to select scene programs as the camera automatic
+ modes optimized for common shooting scenes. Within these modes the
+ camera determines best exposure, aperture, focusing, light metering,
+ white balance and equivalent sensitivity. The controls of those
+ parameters are influenced by the scene mode control. An exact
+ behavior in each mode is subject to the camera specification.
+
+ When the scene mode feature is not used, this control should be set
+ to ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_NONE`` to make sure the other possibly related
+ controls are accessible. The following scene programs are defined:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 0
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_NONE``
+
+ - The scene mode feature is disabled.
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_BACKLIGHT``
+
+ - Backlight. Compensates for dark shadows when light is coming from
+ behind a subject, also by automatically turning on the flash.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_BEACH_SNOW``
+
+ - Beach and snow. This mode compensates for all-white or bright
+ scenes, which tend to look gray and low contrast, when camera's
+ automatic exposure is based on an average scene brightness. To
+ compensate, this mode automatically slightly overexposes the
+ frames. The white balance may also be adjusted to compensate for
+ the fact that reflected snow looks bluish rather than white.
+
+ - .. row 4
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_CANDLELIGHT``
+
+ - Candle light. The camera generally raises the ISO sensitivity and
+ lowers the shutter speed. This mode compensates for relatively
+ close subject in the scene. The flash is disabled in order to
+ preserve the ambiance of the light.
+
+ - .. row 5
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_DAWN_DUSK``
+
+ - Dawn and dusk. Preserves the colors seen in low natural light
+ before dusk and after down. The camera may turn off the flash, and
+ automatically focus at infinity. It will usually boost saturation
+ and lower the shutter speed.
+
+ - .. row 6
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_FALL_COLORS``
+
+ - Fall colors. Increases saturation and adjusts white balance for
+ color enhancement. Pictures of autumn leaves get saturated reds
+ and yellows.
+
+ - .. row 7
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_FIREWORKS``
+
+ - Fireworks. Long exposure times are used to capture the expanding
+ burst of light from a firework. The camera may invoke image
+ stabilization.
+
+ - .. row 8
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_LANDSCAPE``
+
+ - Landscape. The camera may choose a small aperture to provide deep
+ depth of field and long exposure duration to help capture detail
+ in dim light conditions. The focus is fixed at infinity. Suitable
+ for distant and wide scenery.
+
+ - .. row 9
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_NIGHT``
+
+ - Night, also known as Night Landscape. Designed for low light
+ conditions, it preserves detail in the dark areas without blowing
+ out bright objects. The camera generally sets itself to a
+ medium-to-high ISO sensitivity, with a relatively long exposure
+ time, and turns flash off. As such, there will be increased image
+ noise and the possibility of blurred image.
+
+ - .. row 10
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_PARTY_INDOOR``
+
+ - Party and indoor. Designed to capture indoor scenes that are lit
+ by indoor background lighting as well as the flash. The camera
+ usually increases ISO sensitivity, and adjusts exposure for the
+ low light conditions.
+
+ - .. row 11
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_PORTRAIT``
+
+ - Portrait. The camera adjusts the aperture so that the depth of
+ field is reduced, which helps to isolate the subject against a
+ smooth background. Most cameras recognize the presence of faces in
+ the scene and focus on them. The color hue is adjusted to enhance
+ skin tones. The intensity of the flash is often reduced.
+
+ - .. row 12
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_SPORTS``
+
+ - Sports. Significantly increases ISO and uses a fast shutter speed
+ to freeze motion of rapidly-moving subjects. Increased image noise
+ may be seen in this mode.
+
+ - .. row 13
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_SUNSET``
+
+ - Sunset. Preserves deep hues seen in sunsets and sunrises. It bumps
+ up the saturation.
+
+ - .. row 14
+
+ - ``V4L2_SCENE_MODE_TEXT``
+
+ - Text. It applies extra contrast and sharpness, it is typically a
+ black-and-white mode optimized for readability. Automatic focus
+ may be switched to close-up mode and this setting may also involve
+ some lens-distortion correction.
+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_3A_LOCK (bitmask)``
+ This control locks or unlocks the automatic focus, exposure and
+ white balance. The automatic adjustments can be paused independently
+ by setting the corresponding lock bit to 1. The camera then retains
+ the settings until the lock bit is cleared. The following lock bits
+ are defined:
+
+ When a given algorithm is not enabled, drivers should ignore
+ requests to lock it and should return no error. An example might be
+ an application setting bit ``V4L2_LOCK_WHITE_BALANCE`` when the
+ ``V4L2_CID_AUTO_WHITE_BALANCE`` control is set to ``FALSE``. The
+ value of this control may be changed by exposure, white balance or
+ focus controls.

+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_PAN_SPEED (integer)``
+ This control turns the camera horizontally at the specific speed.
+ The unit is undefined. A positive value moves the camera to the
+ right (clockwise when viewed from above), a negative value to the
+ left. A value of zero stops the motion if one is in progress and has
+ no effect otherwise.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TILT_SPEED (integer)``
+ This control turns the camera vertically at the specified speed. The
+ unit is undefined. A positive value moves the camera up, a negative
+ value down. A value of zero stops the motion if one is in progress
+ and has no effect otherwise.

+ return a description of this control class.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_DEVIATION (integer)``
+ Configures RDS signal frequency deviation level in Hz. The range and
+ step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PI (integer)``
+ Sets the RDS Programme Identification field for transmission.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PTY (integer)``
+ Sets the RDS Programme Type field for transmission. This encodes up
+ to 31 pre-defined programme types.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PS_NAME (string)``
+ Sets the Programme Service name (PS_NAME) for transmission. It is
+ intended for static display on a receiver. It is the primary aid to
+ listeners in programme service identification and selection. In
+ Annex E of :ref:`iec62106`, the RDS specification, there is a full
+ description of the correct character encoding for Programme Service
+ name strings. Also from RDS specification, PS is usually a single
+ eight character text. However, it is also possible to find receivers
+ which can scroll strings sized as 8 x N characters. So, this control
+ must be configured with steps of 8 characters. The result is it must
+ always contain a string with size multiple of 8.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_RADIO_TEXT (string)``
+ Sets the Radio Text info for transmission. It is a textual
+ description of what is being broadcasted. RDS Radio Text can be
+ applied when broadcaster wishes to transmit longer PS names,
+ programme-related information or any other text. In these cases,
+ RadioText should be used in addition to ``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_PS_NAME``.
+ The encoding for Radio Text strings is also fully described in Annex
+ E of :ref:`iec62106`. The length of Radio Text strings depends on
+ which RDS Block is being used to transmit it, either 32 (2A block)
+ or 64 (2B block). However, it is also possible to find receivers
+ which can scroll strings sized as 32 x N or 64 x N characters. So,
+ this control must be configured with steps of 32 or 64 characters.
+ The result is it must always contain a string with size multiple of
+ 32 or 64.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_MONO_STEREO (boolean)``

+ Sets the Compressed bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set,
+ then the audio is compressed.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_DYNAMIC_PTY (boolean)``
+ Sets the Dynamic PTY bit of the Decoder Identification code. If set,
+ then the PTY code is dynamically switched.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_TRAFFIC_ANNOUNCEMENT (boolean)``
+ If set, then a traffic announcement is in progress.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_TRAFFIC_PROGRAM (boolean)``
+ If set, then the tuned programme carries traffic announcements.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_MUSIC_SPEECH (boolean)``
+ If set, then this channel broadcasts music. If cleared, then it
+ broadcasts speech. If the transmitter doesn't make this distinction,
+ then it should be set.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_ALT_FREQS_ENABLE (boolean)``
+ If set, then transmit alternate frequencies.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_TX_ALT_FREQS (__u32 array)``
+ The alternate frequencies in kHz units. The RDS standard allows for
+ up to 25 frequencies to be defined. Drivers may support fewer
+ frequencies so check the array size.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LIMITER_ENABLED (boolean)``
+ Enables or disables the audio deviation limiter feature. The limiter
+ is useful when trying to maximize the audio volume, minimize
+ receiver-generated distortion and prevent overmodulation.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_LIMITER_RELEASE_TIME (integer)``
+ Sets the audio deviation limiter feature release time. Unit is in
+ useconds. Step and range are driver-specific.

+ Configures audio frequency deviation level in Hz. The range and step
+ are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_ENABLED (boolean)``
+ Enables or disables the audio compression feature. This feature
+ amplifies signals below the threshold by a fixed gain and compresses
+ audio signals above the threshold by the ratio of Threshold/(Gain +
+ Threshold).
+
+``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_COMPRESSION_GAIN (integer)``
+ Sets the gain for audio compression feature. It is a dB value. The
+ range and step are driver-specific.

+
+Flash Control Reference
+=======================
+
+The V4L2 flash controls are intended to provide generic access to flash
+controller devices. Flash controller devices are typically used in
+digital cameras.
+
+The interface can support both LED and xenon flash devices. As of
+writing this, there is no xenon flash driver using this interface.
+
+
+.. _flash-controls-use-cases:
+
+Supported use cases
+-------------------
+
+
+Unsynchronised LED flash (software strobe)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Unsynchronised LED flash is controlled directly by the host as the
+sensor. The flash must be enabled by the host before the exposure of the
+image starts and disabled once it ends. The host is fully responsible
+for the timing of the flash.
+
+Example of such device: Nokia N900.
+
+
+Synchronised LED flash (hardware strobe)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The synchronised LED flash is pre-programmed by the host (power and
+timeout) but controlled by the sensor through a strobe signal from the
+sensor to the flash.
+
+The sensor controls the flash duration and timing. This information
+typically must be made available to the sensor.
+
+
+LED flash as torch
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+LED flash may be used as torch in conjunction with another use case
+involving camera or individually.

+JPEG Control IDs
+----------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_JPEG_CLASS (class)``
+ The JPEG class descriptor. Calling
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` for this control will
+ return a description of this control class.
+
+``V4L2_CID_JPEG_CHROMA_SUBSAMPLING (menu)``
+ The chroma subsampling factors describe how each component of an
+ input image is sampled, in respect to maximum sample rate in each
+ spatial dimension. See :ref:`itu-t81`, clause A.1.1. for more
+ details. The ``V4L2_CID_JPEG_CHROMA_SUBSAMPLING`` control determines
+ how Cb and Cr components are downsampled after coverting an input
+ image from RGB to Y'CbCr color space.

+
+ - Use only luminance component.
+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_JPEG_RESTART_INTERVAL (integer)``
+ The restart interval determines an interval of inserting RSTm
+ markers (m = 0..7). The purpose of these markers is to additionally
+ reinitialize the encoder process, in order to process blocks of an
+ image independently. For the lossy compression processes the restart
+ interval unit is MCU (Minimum Coded Unit) and its value is contained
+ in DRI (Define Restart Interval) marker. If
+ ``V4L2_CID_JPEG_RESTART_INTERVAL`` control is set to 0, DRI and RSTm
+ markers will not be inserted.
+
+.. _`jpeg-quality-control`:
+
+``V4L2_CID_JPEG_COMPRESSION_QUALITY (integer)``
+ ``V4L2_CID_JPEG_COMPRESSION_QUALITY`` control determines trade-off
+ between image quality and size. It provides simpler method for
+ applications to control image quality, without a need for direct
+ reconfiguration of luminance and chrominance quantization tables. In
+ cases where a driver uses quantization tables configured directly by
+ an application, using interfaces defined elsewhere,
+ ``V4L2_CID_JPEG_COMPRESSION_QUALITY`` control should be set by
+ driver to 0.
+
+ The value range of this control is driver-specific. Only positive,
+ non-zero values are meaningful. The recommended range is 1 - 100,
+ where larger values correspond to better image quality.
+
+.. _`jpeg-active-marker-control`:

+
+Image Source Control Reference
+==============================
+
+The Image Source control class is intended for low-level control of
+image source devices such as image sensors. The devices feature an
+analogue to digital converter and a bus transmitter to transmit the
+image data out of the device.
+
+
+.. _image-source-control-id:
+
+Image Source Control IDs
+------------------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_IMAGE_SOURCE_CLASS (class)``
+ The IMAGE_SOURCE class descriptor.
+
+``V4L2_CID_VBLANK (integer)``
+ Vertical blanking. The idle period after every frame during which no
+ image data is produced. The unit of vertical blanking is a line.
+ Every line has length of the image width plus horizontal blanking at
+ the pixel rate defined by ``V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE`` control in the
+ same sub-device.
+
+``V4L2_CID_HBLANK (integer)``
+ Horizontal blanking. The idle period after every line of image data
+ during which no image data is produced. The unit of horizontal
+ blanking is pixels.
+
+``V4L2_CID_ANALOGUE_GAIN (integer)``
+ Analogue gain is gain affecting all colour components in the pixel
+ matrix. The gain operation is performed in the analogue domain
+ before A/D conversion.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_RED (integer)``
+ Test pattern red colour component.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN_GREENR (integer)``

+ Test pattern green (next to blue) colour component.
+
+
+.. _image-process-controls:
+
+Image Process Control Reference
+===============================
+
+The Image Process control class is intended for low-level control of
+image processing functions. Unlike ``V4L2_CID_IMAGE_SOURCE_CLASS``, the
+controls in this class affect processing the image, and do not control
+capturing of it.
+
+
+.. _image-process-control-id:
+
+Image Process Control IDs
+-------------------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_IMAGE_PROC_CLASS (class)``
+ The IMAGE_PROC class descriptor.
+
+``V4L2_CID_LINK_FREQ (integer menu)``
+ Data bus frequency. Together with the media bus pixel code, bus type
+ (clock cycles per sample), the data bus frequency defines the pixel
+ rate (``V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE``) in the pixel array (or possibly
+ elsewhere, if the device is not an image sensor). The frame rate can
+ be calculated from the pixel clock, image width and height and
+ horizontal and vertical blanking. While the pixel rate control may
+ be defined elsewhere than in the subdev containing the pixel array,
+ the frame rate cannot be obtained from that information. This is
+ because only on the pixel array it can be assumed that the vertical
+ and horizontal blanking information is exact: no other blanking is
+ allowed in the pixel array. The selection of frame rate is performed
+ by selecting the desired horizontal and vertical blanking. The unit
+ of this control is Hz.
+
+``V4L2_CID_PIXEL_RATE (64-bit integer)``
+ Pixel rate in the source pads of the subdev. This control is
+ read-only and its unit is pixels / second.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TEST_PATTERN (menu)``
+ Some capture/display/sensor devices have the capability to generate
+ test pattern images. These hardware specific test patterns can be
+ used to test if a device is working properly.
+
+
+.. _dv-controls:
+
+Digital Video Control Reference
+===============================
+
+The Digital Video control class is intended to control receivers and
+transmitters for `VGA <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vga>`__,
+`DVI <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface>`__
+(Digital Visual Interface), HDMI (:ref:`hdmi`) and DisplayPort
+(:ref:`dp`). These controls are generally expected to be private to
+the receiver or transmitter subdevice that implements them, so they are
+only exposed on the ``/dev/v4l-subdev*`` device node.
+
+Note that these devices can have multiple input or output pads which are
+hooked up to e.g. HDMI connectors. Even though the subdevice will
+receive or transmit video from/to only one of those pads, the other pads
+can still be active when it comes to EDID (Extended Display
+Identification Data, :ref:`vesaedid`) and HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
+Content Protection System, :ref:`hdcp`) processing, allowing the
+device to do the fairly slow EDID/HDCP handling in advance. This allows
+for quick switching between connectors.
+
+These pads appear in several of the controls in this section as
+bitmasks, one bit for each pad. Bit 0 corresponds to pad 0, bit 1 to pad
+1, etc. The maximum value of the control is the set of valid pads.
+
+
+.. _dv-control-id:
+
+Digital Video Control IDs
+-------------------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_CLASS (class)``
+ The Digital Video class descriptor.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_HOTPLUG (bitmask)``
+ Many connectors have a hotplug pin which is high if EDID information
+ is available from the source. This control shows the state of the
+ hotplug pin as seen by the transmitter. Each bit corresponds to an
+ output pad on the transmitter. If an output pad does not have an
+ associated hotplug pin, then the bit for that pad will be 0. This
+ read-only control is applicable to DVI-D, HDMI and DisplayPort
+ connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_RXSENSE (bitmask)``
+ Rx Sense is the detection of pull-ups on the TMDS clock lines. This
+ normally means that the sink has left/entered standby (i.e. the
+ transmitter can sense that the receiver is ready to receive video).
+ Each bit corresponds to an output pad on the transmitter. If an
+ output pad does not have an associated Rx Sense, then the bit for
+ that pad will be 0. This read-only control is applicable to DVI-D
+ and HDMI devices.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_EDID_PRESENT (bitmask)``
+ When the transmitter sees the hotplug signal from the receiver it
+ will attempt to read the EDID. If set, then the transmitter has read
+ at least the first block (= 128 bytes). Each bit corresponds to an
+ output pad on the transmitter. If an output pad does not support
+ EDIDs, then the bit for that pad will be 0. This read-only control
+ is applicable to VGA, DVI-A/D, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_MODE (enum v4l2_dv_tx_mode)``
+ HDMI transmitters can transmit in DVI-D mode (just video) or in HDMI
+ mode (video + audio + auxiliary data). This control selects which
+ mode to use: V4L2_DV_TX_MODE_DVI_D or V4L2_DV_TX_MODE_HDMI.
+ This control is applicable to HDMI connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_RGB_RANGE (enum v4l2_dv_rgb_range)``
+ Select the quantization range for RGB output. V4L2_DV_RANGE_AUTO
+ follows the RGB quantization range specified in the standard for the
+ video interface (ie. :ref:`cea861` for HDMI).
+ V4L2_DV_RANGE_LIMITED and V4L2_DV_RANGE_FULL override the
+ standard to be compatible with sinks that have not implemented the
+ standard correctly (unfortunately quite common for HDMI and DVI-D).
+ Full range allows all possible values to be used whereas limited
+ range sets the range to (16 << (N-8)) - (235 << (N-8)) where N is
+ the number of bits per component. This control is applicable to VGA,
+ DVI-A/D, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_IT_CONTENT_TYPE (enum v4l2_dv_it_content_type)``
+ Configures the IT Content Type of the transmitted video. This
+ information is sent over HDMI and DisplayPort connectors as part of
+ the AVI InfoFrame. The term 'IT Content' is used for content that
+ originates from a computer as opposed to content from a TV broadcast
+ or an analog source. The enum v4l2_dv_it_content_type defines
+ the possible content types:
+
+
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 0
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+

+
+ - Game content. Audio and video latency should be minimized.
+
+ - .. row 5
+
+ - ``V4L2_DV_IT_CONTENT_TYPE_NO_ITC``
+
+ - No IT Content information is available and the ITC bit in the AVI
+ InfoFrame is set to 0.
+
+
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_RX_POWER_PRESENT (bitmask)``
+ Detects whether the receiver receives power from the source (e.g.
+ HDMI carries 5V on one of the pins). This is often used to power an
+ eeprom which contains EDID information, such that the source can
+ read the EDID even if the sink is in standby/power off. Each bit
+ corresponds to an input pad on the transmitter. If an input pad
+ cannot detect whether power is present, then the bit for that pad
+ will be 0. This read-only control is applicable to DVI-D, HDMI and
+ DisplayPort connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_RX_RGB_RANGE (enum v4l2_dv_rgb_range)``
+ Select the quantization range for RGB input. V4L2_DV_RANGE_AUTO
+ follows the RGB quantization range specified in the standard for the
+ video interface (ie. :ref:`cea861` for HDMI).
+ V4L2_DV_RANGE_LIMITED and V4L2_DV_RANGE_FULL override the
+ standard to be compatible with sources that have not implemented the
+ standard correctly (unfortunately quite common for HDMI and DVI-D).
+ Full range allows all possible values to be used whereas limited
+ range sets the range to (16 << (N-8)) - (235 << (N-8)) where N is

+ DVI-A/D, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors.
+
+``V4L2_CID_DV_RX_IT_CONTENT_TYPE (enum v4l2_dv_it_content_type)``
+ Reads the IT Content Type of the received video. This information is
+ sent over HDMI and DisplayPort connectors as part of the AVI
+ InfoFrame. The term 'IT Content' is used for content that originates
+ from a computer as opposed to content from a TV broadcast or an
+ analog source. See ``V4L2_CID_DV_TX_IT_CONTENT_TYPE`` for the
+ available content types.

+-----------------
+
+``V4L2_CID_FM_RX_CLASS (class)``
+ The FM_RX class descriptor. Calling
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` for this control will
+ return a description of this control class.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_RECEPTION (boolean)``
+ Enables/disables RDS reception by the radio tuner
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_RX_PTY (integer)``
+ Gets RDS Programme Type field. This encodes up to 31 pre-defined
+ programme types.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_RX_PS_NAME (string)``
+ Gets the Programme Service name (PS_NAME). It is intended for
+ static display on a receiver. It is the primary aid to listeners in
+ programme service identification and selection. In Annex E of
+ :ref:`iec62106`, the RDS specification, there is a full
+ description of the correct character encoding for Programme Service
+ name strings. Also from RDS specification, PS is usually a single
+ eight character text. However, it is also possible to find receivers
+ which can scroll strings sized as 8 x N characters. So, this control
+ must be configured with steps of 8 characters. The result is it must
+ always contain a string with size multiple of 8.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RDS_RX_RADIO_TEXT (string)``
+ Gets the Radio Text info. It is a textual description of what is
+ being broadcasted. RDS Radio Text can be applied when broadcaster
+ wishes to transmit longer PS names, programme-related information or
+ any other text. In these cases, RadioText can be used in addition to
+ ``V4L2_CID_RDS_RX_PS_NAME``. The encoding for Radio Text strings is
+ also fully described in Annex E of :ref:`iec62106`. The length of
+ Radio Text strings depends on which RDS Block is being used to
+ transmit it, either 32 (2A block) or 64 (2B block). However, it is
+ also possible to find receivers which can scroll strings sized as 32
+ x N or 64 x N characters. So, this control must be configured with
+ steps of 32 or 64 characters. The result is it must always contain a
+ string with size multiple of 32 or 64.
+

+``V4L2_CID_RDS_RX_MUSIC_SPEECH (boolean)``
+ If set, then this channel broadcasts music. If cleared, then it
+ broadcasts speech. If the transmitter doesn't make this distinction,
+ then it will be set.
+
+``V4L2_CID_TUNE_DEEMPHASIS (enum v4l2_deemphasis)``
+ Configures the de-emphasis value for reception. A de-emphasis filter
+ is applied to the broadcast to accentuate the high audio
+ frequencies. Depending on the region, a time constant of either 50
+ or 75 useconds is used. The enum v4l2_deemphasis defines possible
+ values for de-emphasis. Here they are:

+
+.. _rf-tuner-controls:
+
+RF Tuner Control Reference
+==========================
+
+The RF Tuner (RF_TUNER) class includes controls for common features of
+devices having RF tuner.
+
+In this context, RF tuner is radio receiver circuit between antenna and
+demodulator. It receives radio frequency (RF) from the antenna and
+converts that received signal to lower intermediate frequency (IF) or
+baseband frequency (BB). Tuners that could do baseband output are often
+called Zero-IF tuners. Older tuners were typically simple PLL tuners
+inside a metal box, whilst newer ones are highly integrated chips
+without a metal box "silicon tuners". These controls are mostly
+applicable for new feature rich silicon tuners, just because older
+tuners does not have much adjustable features.
+
+For more information about RF tuners see
+`Tuner (radio) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuner_%28radio%29>`__
+and `RF front end <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_front_end>`__

+
+``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_RF_GAIN (integer)``
+ The RF amplifier is the very first amplifier on the receiver signal
+ path, just right after the antenna input. The difference between the
+ LNA gain and the RF gain in this document is that the LNA gain is
+ integrated in the tuner chip while the RF gain is a separate chip.
+ There may be both RF and LNA gain controls in the same device. The
+ range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_LNA_GAIN (integer)``
+ LNA (low noise amplifier) gain is first gain stage on the RF tuner
+ signal path. It is located very close to tuner antenna input. Used
+ when ``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_LNA_GAIN_AUTO`` is not set. See
+ ``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_RF_GAIN`` to understand how RF gain and LNA gain
+ differs from the each others. The range and step are
+ driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_MIXER_GAIN (integer)``
+ Mixer gain is second gain stage on the RF tuner signal path. It is
+ located inside mixer block, where RF signal is down-converted by the
+ mixer. Used when ``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_MIXER_GAIN_AUTO`` is not set.
+ The range and step are driver-specific.
+
+``V4L2_CID_RF_TUNER_IF_GAIN (integer)``

+The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+written document “free” in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the
+effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying
+it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License
+preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their
+work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by
+others.
+
+This License is a kind of “copyleft”, which means that derivative works
+of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
+complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license
+designed for free software.
+
+We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
+software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program
+should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software
+does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be
+used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is
+published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for
+works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section1:
+
+1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+================================
+
+
+.. _fdl-document:
+This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a notice
+placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the
+terms of this License. The “Document”, below, refers to any such manual
+or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as
+“you”.
+
+
+.. _fdl-modified:
+A “Modified Version” of the Document means any work containing the
+Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+
+.. _fdl-secondary:
+A “Secondary Section” is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
+the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` that deals exclusively with the
+relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the
+Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing
+that could fall directly within that overall subject. (For example, if
+the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section
+may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
+historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of
+legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
+regarding them.
+
+
+.. _fdl-invariant:
+The “Invariant Sections” are certain
+:ref:`Secondary Sections <fdl-secondary>` whose titles are designated,
+as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` is released under this License.
+
+
+.. _fdl-cover-texts:
+The “Cover Texts” are certain short passages of text that are listed, as
+Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` is released under this License.
+
+
+.. _fdl-transparent:
+A “Transparent” copy of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` means a
+machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is
+available to the general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited
+directly and straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
+composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely
+available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
+formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable
+for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent
+file format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage
+subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is
+not “Transparent” is called “Opaque”.
+
+Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII
+without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML
+using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML
+designed for human modification. Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF,
+proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word
+processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are
+not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some
+word processors for output purposes only.
+
+
+.. _fdl-title-page:
+The “Title Page” means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus
+such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this
+License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which
+do not have any title page as such, “Title Page” means the text near the
+most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning
+of the body of the text.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section2:
+
+2. VERBATIM COPYING
+===================
+
+You may copy and distribute the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` in any
+medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this
+License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this
+License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that
+you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may
+not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
+compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
+number of copies you must also follow the conditions in
+:ref:`section 3 <fdl-section3>`.
+
+You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+you may publicly display copies.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section3:
+
+3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+======================
+
+If you publish printed copies of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`
+numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires
+:ref:`Cover Texts <fdl-cover-texts>`, you must enclose the copies in
+covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts:
+Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back
+cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the
+publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title
+with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add
+other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited
+to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` and satisfy these conditions, can be
+treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
+
+If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+pages.
+
+If you publish or distribute :ref:`Opaque <fdl-transparent>` copies of
+the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` numbering more than 100, you must
+either include a machine-readable :ref:`Transparent <fdl-transparent>`
+copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a
+publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
+Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
+general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
+charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter
+option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
+distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
+Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
+until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
+copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
+the public.
+
+It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` well before redistributing any large
+number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
+version of the Document.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section4:
+
+4. MODIFICATIONS
+================
+
+You may copy and distribute a :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`
+of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` under the conditions of sections
+:ref:`2 <fdl-section2>` and :ref:`3 <fdl-section3>` above, provided
+that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
+the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing
+distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever
+possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the
+Modified Version:
+
+- **A.**
+
+ Use in the :ref:`Title Page <fdl-title-page>` (and on the covers,
+ if any) a title distinct from that of the
+ :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`, and from those of previous versions
+ (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of
+ the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if
+ the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+
+- **B.**
+
+ List on the :ref:`Title Page <fdl-title-page>`, as authors, one or
+ more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the
+ modifications in the :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`,
+ together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+ :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` (all of its principal authors, if it
+ has less than five).
+
+- **C.**
+
+ State on the :ref:`Title Page <fdl-title-page>` the name of the
+ publisher of the :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`, as the
+ publisher.
+
+- **D.**
+
+ Preserve all the copyright notices of the
+ :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`.
+
+- **E.**
+
+ Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent
+ to the other copyright notices.
+
+- **F.**
+
+ Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+ giving the public permission to use the
+ :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>` under the terms of this
+ License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+
+- **G.**
+
+ Preserve in that license notice the full lists of
+ :ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` and required
+ :ref:`Cover Texts <fdl-cover-texts>` given in the
+ :ref:`Document's <fdl-document>` license notice.
+
+- **H.**
+
+ Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+- **I.**
+
+ Preserve the section entitled “History”, and its title, and add to it
+ an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher
+ of the :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`as given on the
+ :ref:`Title Page <fdl-title-page>`. If there is no section entitled
+ “History” in the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`, create one stating
+ the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on
+ its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as
+ stated in the previous sentence.
+
+- **J.**
+
+ Preserve the network location, if any, given in the
+ :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` for public access to a
+ :ref:`Transparent <fdl-transparent>` copy of the Document, and
+ likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous
+ versions it was based on. These may be placed in the “History”
+ section. You may omit a network location for a work that was
+ published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the
+ original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+
+- **K.**
+
+ In any section entitled “Acknowledgements” or “Dedications”, preserve
+ the section's title, and preserve in the section all the substance
+ and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or
+ dedications given therein.
+
+- **L.**
+
+ Preserve all the :ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` of the
+ :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`, unaltered in their text and in
+ their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered
+ part of the section titles.
+
+- **M.**
+
+ Delete any section entitled “Endorsements”. Such a section may not be
+ included in the :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`.
+
+- **N.**
+
+ Do not retitle any existing section as “Endorsements” or to conflict
+ in title with any :ref:`Invariant Section <fdl-invariant>`.
+
+If the :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>` includes new
+front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as
+:ref:`Secondary Sections <fdl-secondary>` and contain no material
+copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list
+of :ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` in the Modified Version's
+license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section
+titles.
+
+You may add a section entitled “Endorsements”, provided it contains
+nothing but endorsements of your
+:ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>` by various parties--for
+example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by
+an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard.
+
+You may add a passage of up to five words as a
+:ref:`Front-Cover Text <fdl-cover-texts>`, and a passage of up to 25
+words as a :ref:`Back-Cover Text <fdl-cover-texts>`, to the end of the
+list of :ref:`Cover Texts <fdl-cover-texts>` in the
+:ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`. Only one passage of
+Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through
+arrangements made by) any one entity. If the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` already includes a cover text for the
+same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same
+entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
+replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher
+that added the old one.
+
+The author(s) and publisher(s) of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>`
+do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity
+for or to assert or imply endorsement of any
+:ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>`.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section5:
+
+5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+======================
+
+You may combine the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` with other
+documents released under this License, under the terms defined in
+:ref:`section 4 <fdl-section4>` above for modified versions, provided
+that you include in the combination all of the
+:ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` of all of the original
+documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
+combined work in its license notice.
+
+The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+multiple identical :ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` may be
+replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections
+with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such
+section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of
+the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
+unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the
+list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+
+In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled “History” in
+the various original documents, forming one section entitled “History”;
+likewise combine any sections entitled “Acknowledgements”, and any
+sections entitled “Dedications”. You must delete all sections entitled
+“Endorsements.”
+
+
+.. _fdl-section6:
+
+6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+===========================
+
+You may make a collection consisting of the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` and other documents released under this
+License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the
+various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection,
+provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying
+of each of the documents in all other respects.
+
+You may extract a single document from such a collection, and dispbibute
+it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section7:
+
+7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+=====================================
+
+A compilation of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` or its derivatives
+with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a
+volume of a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count as
+a :ref:`Modified Version <fdl-modified>` of the Document, provided no
+compilation copyright is claimed for the compilation. Such a compilation
+is called an “aggregate”, and this License does not apply to the other
+self-contained works thus compiled with the Document , on account of
+their being thus compiled, if they are not themselves derivative works
+of the Document. If the :ref:`Cover Text <fdl-cover-texts>`
+requirement of :ref:`section 3 <fdl-section3>` is applicable to these
+copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter of
+the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers
+that surround only the Document within the aggregate. Otherwise they
+must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section8:
+
+8. TRANSLATION
+==============
+
+Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute
+translations of the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` under the terms of
+:ref:`section 4 <fdl-section4>`. Replacing
+:ref:`Invariant Sections <fdl-invariant>` with translations requires
+special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+translation of this License provided that you also include the original
+English version of this License. In case of a disagreement between the
+translation and the original English version of this License, the
+original English version will prevail.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section9:
+
+9. TERMINATION
+==============
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the
+:ref:`Document <fdl-document>` except as expressly provided for under
+this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or
+distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your
+rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or
+rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
+terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
+
+
+.. _fdl-section10:
+
+10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+====================================
+
+The `Free Software Foundation <http://www.gnu.org/fsf/fsf.html>`__
+may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License
+from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the
+present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or
+concerns. See
+`http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/ <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft>`__.
+
+Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If
+the :ref:`Document <fdl-document>` specifies that a particular
+numbered version of this License “or any later version” applies to it,
+you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that
+specified version or of any later version that has been published (not
+as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not
+specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version
+ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+
+.. _fdl-using:
+
+Addendum
+========
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
+notices just after the title page:
+
+ Copyright © YEAR YOUR NAME.

+
+***********
+Field Order
+***********
+
+We have to distinguish between progressive and interlaced video.
+Progressive video transmits all lines of a video image sequentially.
+Interlaced video divides an image into two fields, containing only the
+odd and even lines of the image, respectively. Alternating the so called
+odd and even field are transmitted, and due to a small delay between
+fields a cathode ray TV displays the lines interleaved, yielding the
+original frame. This curious technique was invented because at refresh
+rates similar to film the image would fade out too quickly. Transmitting
+fields reduces the flicker without the necessity of doubling the frame
+rate and with it the bandwidth required for each channel.
+
+It is important to understand a video camera does not expose one frame
+at a time, merely transmitting the frames separated into fields. The
+fields are in fact captured at two different instances in time. An
+object on screen may well move between one field and the next. For
+applications analysing motion it is of paramount importance to recognize
+which field of a frame is older, the *temporal order*.
+
+When the driver provides or accepts images field by field rather than
+interleaved, it is also important applications understand how the fields
+combine to frames. We distinguish between top (aka odd) and bottom (aka
+even) fields, the *spatial order*: The first line of the top field is
+the first line of an interlaced frame, the first line of the bottom
+field is the second line of that frame.
+
+However because fields were captured one after the other, arguing
+whether a frame commences with the top or bottom field is pointless. Any
+two successive top and bottom, or bottom and top fields yield a valid
+frame. Only when the source was progressive to begin with, e. g. when
+transferring film to video, two fields may come from the same frame,
+creating a natural order.
+
+Counter to intuition the top field is not necessarily the older field.
+Whether the older field contains the top or bottom lines is a convention
+determined by the video standard. Hence the distinction between temporal
+and spatial order of fields. The diagrams below should make this
+clearer.
+
+All video capture and output devices must report the current field
+order. Some drivers may permit the selection of a different order, to
+this end applications initialize the ``field`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` before calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. If this is not desired it
+should have the value ``V4L2_FIELD_ANY`` (0).

+ ``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED`` formats is acceptable. Drivers choose
+ depending on hardware capabilities or e. g. the requested image
+ size, and return the actual field order. Drivers must never return
+ ``V4L2_FIELD_ANY``. If multiple field orders are possible the
+ driver must choose one of the possible field orders during
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` or
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`. struct

+
+ - 7
+
+ - The two fields of a frame are passed in separate buffers, in
+ temporal order, i. e. the older one first. To indicate the field
+ parity (whether the current field is a top or bottom field) the
+ driver or application, depending on data direction, must set
+ struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``field`` to
+ ``V4L2_FIELD_TOP`` or ``V4L2_FIELD_BOTTOM``. Any two successive
+ fields pair to build a frame. If fields are successive, without
+ any dropped fields between them (fields can drop individually),
+ can be determined from the struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``sequence`` field. This
+ format cannot be selected when using the read/write I/O method
+ since there is no way to communicate if a field was a top or
+ bottom field.

+
+Data Format Negotiation
+=======================
+
+Different devices exchange different kinds of data with applications,
+for example video images, raw or sliced VBI data, RDS datagrams. Even
+within one kind many different formats are possible, in particular an
+abundance of image formats. Although drivers must provide a default and
+the selection persists across closing and reopening a device,
+applications should always negotiate a data format before engaging in
+data exchange. Negotiation means the application asks for a particular
+format and the driver selects and reports the best the hardware can do
+to satisfy the request. Of course applications can also just query the
+current selection.
+
+A single mechanism exists to negotiate all data formats using the
+aggregate struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` and the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctls. Additionally the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl can be used to examine
+what the hardware *could* do, without actually selecting a new data
+format. The data formats supported by the V4L2 API are covered in the
+respective device section in :ref:`devices`. For a closer look at
+image formats see :ref:`pixfmt`.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl is a major turning-point in the
+initialization sequence. Prior to this point multiple panel applications
+can access the same device concurrently to select the current input,
+change controls or modify other properties. The first ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``
+assigns a logical stream (video data, VBI data etc.) exclusively to one
+file descriptor.
+
+Exclusive means no other application, more precisely no other file
+descriptor, can grab this stream or change device properties
+inconsistent with the negotiated parameters. A video standard change for
+example, when the new standard uses a different number of scan lines,
+can invalidate the selected image format. Therefore only the file
+descriptor owning the stream can make invalidating changes. Accordingly
+multiple file descriptors which grabbed different logical streams
+prevent each other from interfering with their settings. When for
+example video overlay is about to start or already in progress,
+simultaneous video capturing may be restricted to the same cropping and
+image size.
+
+When applications omit the ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl its locking side
+effects are implied by the next step, the selection of an I/O method
+with the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl or implicit
+with the first :ref:`read() <func-read>` or
+:ref:`write() <func-write>` call.
+
+Generally only one logical stream can be assigned to a file descriptor,
+the exception being drivers permitting simultaneous video capturing and
+overlay using the same file descriptor for compatibility with V4L and
+earlier versions of V4L2. Switching the logical stream or returning into
+"panel mode" is possible by closing and reopening the device. Drivers
+*may* support a switch using ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``.
+
+All drivers exchanging data with applications must support the
+``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl. Implementation of the
+``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` is highly recommended but optional.
+
+
+Image Format Enumeration
+========================
+
+Apart of the generic format negotiation functions a special ioctl to
+enumerate all image formats supported by video capture, overlay or
+output devices is available. [1]_
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT <vidioc-enum-fmt>` ioctl must be supported
+by all drivers exchanging image data with applications.
+
+ **Important**
+
+ Drivers are not supposed to convert image formats in kernel space.
+ They must enumerate only formats directly supported by the hardware.
+ If necessary driver writers should publish an example conversion
+ routine or library for integration into applications.
+
+.. [1]
+ Enumerating formats an application has no a-priori knowledge of
+ (otherwise it could explicitly ask for them and need not enumerate)
+ seems useless, but there are applications serving as proxy between
+ drivers and the actual video applications for which this is useful.

+
+Description
+===========
+
+The :c:func:`ioctl()` function is used to program V4L2 devices. The
+argument ``fd`` must be an open file descriptor. An ioctl ``request``
+has encoded in it whether the argument is an input, output or read/write
+parameter, and the size of the argument ``argp`` in bytes. Macros and
+defines specifying V4L2 ioctl requests are located in the
+``videodev2.h`` header file. Applications should use their own copy, not
+include the version in the kernel sources on the system they compile on.
+All V4L2 ioctl requests, their respective function and parameters are
+specified in :ref:`user-func`.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+When an ioctl that takes an output or read/write parameter fails, the
+parameter remains unmodified.

+ #include <unistd.h>
+ #include <sys/mman.h>
+
+
+.. c:function:: void *mmap( void *start, size_t length, int prot, int flags, int fd, off_t offset )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``start``
+ Map the buffer to this address in the application's address space.
+ When the ``MAP_FIXED`` flag is specified, ``start`` must be a
+ multiple of the pagesize and mmap will fail when the specified
+ address cannot be used. Use of this option is discouraged;
+ applications should just specify a ``NULL`` pointer here.
+
+``length``
+ Length of the memory area to map. This must be the same value as
+ returned by the driver in the struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``length`` field for the
+ single-planar API, and the same value as returned by the driver in
+ the struct :ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` ``length`` field for
+ the multi-planar API.
+
+``prot``
+ The ``prot`` argument describes the desired memory protection.
+ Regardless of the device type and the direction of data exchange it
+ should be set to ``PROT_READ`` | ``PROT_WRITE``, permitting read
+ and write access to image buffers. Drivers should support at least
+ this combination of flags. Note the Linux ``video-buf`` kernel
+ module, which is used by the bttv, saa7134, saa7146, cx88 and vivi
+ driver supports only ``PROT_READ`` | ``PROT_WRITE``. When the
+ driver does not support the desired protection the
+ :c:func:`mmap()` function fails.
+
+ Note device memory accesses (e. g. the memory on a graphics card
+ with video capturing hardware) may incur a performance penalty
+ compared to main memory accesses, or reads may be significantly
+ slower than writes or vice versa. Other I/O methods may be more
+ efficient in this case.
+
+``flags``
+ The ``flags`` parameter specifies the type of the mapped object,
+ mapping options and whether modifications made to the mapped copy of
+ the page are private to the process or are to be shared with other
+ references.
+
+ ``MAP_FIXED`` requests that the driver selects no other address than
+ the one specified. If the specified address cannot be used,
+ :c:func:`mmap()` will fail. If ``MAP_FIXED`` is specified,
+ ``start`` must be a multiple of the pagesize. Use of this option is
+ discouraged.
+
+ One of the ``MAP_SHARED`` or ``MAP_PRIVATE`` flags must be set.
+ ``MAP_SHARED`` allows applications to share the mapped memory with
+ other (e. g. child-) processes. Note the Linux ``video-buf`` module
+ which is used by the bttv, saa7134, saa7146, cx88 and vivi driver
+ supports only ``MAP_SHARED``. ``MAP_PRIVATE`` requests copy-on-write
+ semantics. V4L2 applications should not set the ``MAP_PRIVATE``,
+ ``MAP_DENYWRITE``, ``MAP_EXECUTABLE`` or ``MAP_ANON`` flag.
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``offset``
+ Offset of the buffer in device memory. This must be the same value
+ as returned by the driver in the struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``m`` union ``offset`` field for
+ the single-planar API, and the same value as returned by the driver
+ in the struct :ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` ``m`` union
+ ``mem_offset`` field for the multi-planar API.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The :c:func:`mmap()` function asks to map ``length`` bytes starting at
+``offset`` in the memory of the device specified by ``fd`` into the
+application address space, preferably at address ``start``. This latter
+address is a hint only, and is usually specified as 0.
+
+Suitable length and offset parameters are queried with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` ioctl. Buffers must be
+allocated with the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl
+before they can be queried.
+
+To unmap buffers the :ref:`munmap() <func-munmap>` function is used.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success :c:func:`mmap()` returns a pointer to the mapped buffer. On
+error ``MAP_FAILED`` (-1) is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. Possible error codes are:
+
+EBADF
+ ``fd`` is not a valid file descriptor.
+
+EACCES
+ ``fd`` is not open for reading and writing.
+
+EINVAL
+ The ``start`` or ``length`` or ``offset`` are not suitable. (E. g.
+ they are too large, or not aligned on a ``PAGESIZE`` boundary.)
+
+ The ``flags`` or ``prot`` value is not supported.
+
+ No buffers have been allocated with the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl.
+
+ENOMEM
+ Not enough physical or virtual memory was available to complete the
+ request.

+========
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <sys/poll.h>
+
+
+.. c:function:: int poll( struct pollfd *ufds, unsigned int nfds, int timeout )
+
+Description
+===========
+
+With the :c:func:`poll()` function applications can suspend execution
+until the driver has captured data or is ready to accept data for
+output.
+
+When streaming I/O has been negotiated this function waits until a
+buffer has been filled by the capture device and can be dequeued with
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. For output devices this
+function waits until the device is ready to accept a new buffer to be
+queued up with the :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl for
+display. When buffers are already in the outgoing queue of the driver
+(capture) or the incoming queue isn't full (display) the function
+returns immediately.
+
+On success :c:func:`poll()` returns the number of file descriptors
+that have been selected (that is, file descriptors for which the
+``revents`` field of the respective :c:type:`struct pollfd` structure
+is non-zero). Capture devices set the ``POLLIN`` and ``POLLRDNORM``
+flags in the ``revents`` field, output devices the ``POLLOUT`` and
+``POLLWRNORM`` flags. When the function timed out it returns a value of
+zero, on failure it returns -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. When the application did not call
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` the :c:func:`poll()`
+function succeeds, but sets the ``POLLERR`` flag in the ``revents``
+field. When the application has called
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` for a capture device but
+hasn't yet called :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>`, the
+:c:func:`poll()` function succeeds and sets the ``POLLERR`` flag in
+the ``revents`` field. For output devices this same situation will cause
+:c:func:`poll()` to succeed as well, but it sets the ``POLLOUT`` and
+``POLLWRNORM`` flags in the ``revents`` field.
+
+If an event occurred (see :ref:`VIDIOC_DQEVENT <vidioc-dqevent>`)
+then ``POLLPRI`` will be set in the ``revents`` field and
+:c:func:`poll()` will return.
+
+When use of the :c:func:`read()` function has been negotiated and the
+driver does not capture yet, the :c:func:`poll()` function starts
+capturing. When that fails it returns a ``POLLERR`` as above. Otherwise
+it waits until data has been captured and can be read. When the driver
+captures continuously (as opposed to, for example, still images) the
+function may return immediately.
+
+When use of the :c:func:`write()` function has been negotiated and the
+driver does not stream yet, the :c:func:`poll()` function starts
+streaming. When that fails it returns a ``POLLERR`` as above. Otherwise
+it waits until the driver is ready for a non-blocking
+:c:func:`write()` call.
+
+If the caller is only interested in events (just ``POLLPRI`` is set in
+the ``events`` field), then :c:func:`poll()` will *not* start
+streaming if the driver does not stream yet. This makes it possible to
+just poll for events and not for buffers.
+
+All drivers implementing the :c:func:`read()` or :c:func:`write()`
+function or streaming I/O must also support the :c:func:`poll()`
+function.
+
+For more details see the :c:func:`poll()` manual page.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, :c:func:`poll()` returns the number structures which have
+non-zero ``revents`` fields, or zero if the call timed out. On error -1
+is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately:
+
+EBADF
+ One or more of the ``ufds`` members specify an invalid file
+ descriptor.
+
+EBUSY
+ The driver does not support multiple read or write streams and the
+ device is already in use.

+Read from a V4L2 device

+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <unistd.h>
+
+
+.. c:function:: ssize_t read( int fd, void *buf, size_t count )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``buf``
+``count``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+:c:func:`read()` attempts to read up to ``count`` bytes from file
+descriptor ``fd`` into the buffer starting at ``buf``. The layout of the
+data in the buffer is discussed in the respective device interface
+section, see ##. If ``count`` is zero, :c:func:`read()` returns zero
+and has no other results. If ``count`` is greater than ``SSIZE_MAX``,
+the result is unspecified. Regardless of the ``count`` value each
+:c:func:`read()` call will provide at most one frame (two fields)
+worth of data.
+
+By default :c:func:`read()` blocks until data becomes available. When
+the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given to the :ref:`open() <func-open>`
+function it returns immediately with an EAGAIN error code when no data
+is available. The :ref:`select() <func-select>` or
+:ref:`poll() <func-poll>` functions can always be used to suspend
+execution until data becomes available. All drivers supporting the
+:c:func:`read()` function must also support :c:func:`select()` and
+:c:func:`poll()`.
+
+Drivers can implement read functionality in different ways, using a
+single or multiple buffers and discarding the oldest or newest frames
+once the internal buffers are filled.
+
+:c:func:`read()` never returns a "snapshot" of a buffer being filled.
+Using a single buffer the driver will stop capturing when the
+application starts reading the buffer until the read is finished. Thus
+only the period of the vertical blanking interval is available for
+reading, or the capture rate must fall below the nominal frame rate of
+the video standard.
+
+The behavior of :c:func:`read()` when called during the active picture
+period or the vertical blanking separating the top and bottom field
+depends on the discarding policy. A driver discarding the oldest frames
+keeps capturing into an internal buffer, continuously overwriting the
+previously, not read frame, and returns the frame being received at the
+time of the :c:func:`read()` call as soon as it is complete.
+
+A driver discarding the newest frames stops capturing until the next
+:c:func:`read()` call. The frame being received at :c:func:`read()`
+time is discarded, returning the following frame instead. Again this
+implies a reduction of the capture rate to one half or less of the
+nominal frame rate. An example of this model is the video read mode of
+the bttv driver, initiating a DMA to user memory when :c:func:`read()`
+is called and returning when the DMA finished.
+
+In the multiple buffer model drivers maintain a ring of internal
+buffers, automatically advancing to the next free buffer. This allows
+continuous capturing when the application can empty the buffers fast
+enough. Again, the behavior when the driver runs out of free buffers
+depends on the discarding policy.
+
+Applications can get and set the number of buffers used internally by
+the driver with the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` ioctls. They are optional,
+however. The discarding policy is not reported and cannot be changed.
+For minimum requirements see :ref:`devices`.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, the number of bytes read is returned. It is not an error if
+this number is smaller than the number of bytes requested, or the amount
+of data required for one frame. This may happen for example because
+:c:func:`read()` was interrupted by a signal. On error, -1 is
+returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately. In this case
+the next read will start at the beginning of a new frame. Possible error
+codes are:
+
+EAGAIN
+ Non-blocking I/O has been selected using O_NONBLOCK and no data was
+ immediately available for reading.
+
+EBADF
+ ``fd`` is not a valid file descriptor or is not open for reading, or
+ the process already has the maximum number of files open.
+
+EBUSY
+ The driver does not support multiple read streams and the device is
+ already in use.
+
+EFAULT
+ ``buf`` references an inaccessible memory area.
+
+EINTR
+ The call was interrupted by a signal before any data was read.
+
+EIO
+ I/O error. This indicates some hardware problem or a failure to
+ communicate with a remote device (USB camera etc.).
+
+EINVAL
+ The :c:func:`read()` function is not supported by this driver, not
+ on this device, or generally not on this type of device.

+Synchronous I/O multiplexing

+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <sys/time.h>
+ #include <sys/types.h>
+ #include <unistd.h>
+
+
+.. c:function:: int select( int nfds, fd_set *readfds, fd_set *writefds, fd_set *exceptfds, struct timeval *timeout )
+
+Description
+===========
+
+With the :c:func:`select()` function applications can suspend
+execution until the driver has captured data or is ready to accept data
+for output.
+
+When streaming I/O has been negotiated this function waits until a
+buffer has been filled or displayed and can be dequeued with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. When buffers are already in
+the outgoing queue of the driver the function returns immediately.
+
+On success :c:func:`select()` returns the total number of bits set in
+the :c:type:`struct fd_set`s. When the function timed out it returns
+a value of zero. On failure it returns -1 and the ``errno`` variable is
+set appropriately. When the application did not call
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` yet the :c:func:`select()`
+function succeeds, setting the bit of the file descriptor in ``readfds``
+or ``writefds``, but subsequent :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>`
+calls will fail. [1]_
+
+When use of the :c:func:`read()` function has been negotiated and the
+driver does not capture yet, the :c:func:`select()` function starts
+capturing. When that fails, :c:func:`select()` returns successful and
+a subsequent :c:func:`read()` call, which also attempts to start
+capturing, will return an appropriate error code. When the driver
+captures continuously (as opposed to, for example, still images) and
+data is already available the :c:func:`select()` function returns
+immediately.
+
+When use of the :c:func:`write()` function has been negotiated the
+:c:func:`select()` function just waits until the driver is ready for a
+non-blocking :c:func:`write()` call.
+
+All drivers implementing the :c:func:`read()` or :c:func:`write()`
+function or streaming I/O must also support the :c:func:`select()`
+function.
+
+For more details see the :c:func:`select()` manual page.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, :c:func:`select()` returns the number of descriptors
+contained in the three returned descriptor sets, which will be zero if
+the timeout expired. On error -1 is returned, and the ``errno`` variable
+is set appropriately; the sets and ``timeout`` are undefined. Possible
+error codes are:
+
+EBADF
+ One or more of the file descriptor sets specified a file descriptor
+ that is not open.
+
+EBUSY
+ The driver does not support multiple read or write streams and the
+ device is already in use.
+
+EFAULT
+ The ``readfds``, ``writefds``, ``exceptfds`` or ``timeout`` pointer
+ references an inaccessible memory area.
+
+EINTR
+ The call was interrupted by a signal.
+
+EINVAL
+ The ``nfds`` argument is less than zero or greater than
+ ``FD_SETSIZE``.
+
+.. [1]
+ The Linux kernel implements :c:func:`select()` like the
+ :ref:`poll() <func-poll>` function, but :c:func:`select()` cannot
+ return a ``POLLERR``.

+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <unistd.h>
+
+
+.. c:function:: ssize_t write( int fd, void *buf, size_t count )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``buf``
+``count``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+:c:func:`write()` writes up to ``count`` bytes to the device
+referenced by the file descriptor ``fd`` from the buffer starting at
+``buf``. When the hardware outputs are not active yet, this function
+enables them. When ``count`` is zero, :c:func:`write()` returns 0
+without any other effect.
+
+When the application does not provide more data in time, the previous
+video frame, raw VBI image, sliced VPS or WSS data is displayed again.
+Sliced Teletext or Closed Caption data is not repeated, the driver
+inserts a blank line instead.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, the number of bytes written are returned. Zero indicates
+nothing was written. On error, -1 is returned, and the ``errno``
+variable is set appropriately. In this case the next write will start at
+the beginning of a new frame. Possible error codes are:
+
+EAGAIN
+ Non-blocking I/O has been selected using the
+ :ref:`O_NONBLOCK <func-open>` flag and no buffer space was
+ available to write the data immediately.
+
+EBADF
+ ``fd`` is not a valid file descriptor or is not open for writing.
+
+EBUSY
+ The driver does not support multiple write streams and the device is
+ already in use.
+
+EFAULT
+ ``buf`` references an inaccessible memory area.
+
+EINTR
+ The call was interrupted by a signal before any data was written.
+
+EIO
+ I/O error. This indicates some hardware problem.
+
+EINVAL
+ The :c:func:`write()` function is not supported by this driver,
+ not on this device, or generally not on this type of device.

+***********************
+Changes of the V4L2 API
+***********************
+
+Soon after the V4L API was added to the kernel it was criticised as too
+inflexible. In August 1998 Bill Dirks proposed a number of improvements
+and began to work on documentation, example drivers and applications.
+With the help of other volunteers this eventually became the V4L2 API,
+not just an extension but a replacement for the V4L API. However it took
+another four years and two stable kernel releases until the new API was
+finally accepted for inclusion into the kernel in its present form.
+
+
+Early Versions
+==============
+
+1998-08-20: First version.
+
+1998-08-27: The :ref:`select() <func-select>` function was introduced.
+
+1998-09-10: New video standard interface.
+
+1998-09-18: The ``VIDIOC_NONCAP`` ioctl was replaced by the otherwise
+meaningless ``O_TRUNC`` :ref:`open() <func-open>` flag, and the
+aliases ``O_NONCAP`` and ``O_NOIO`` were defined. Applications can set
+this flag if they intend to access controls only, as opposed to capture
+applications which need exclusive access. The ``VIDEO_STD_XXX``
+identifiers are now ordinals instead of flags, and the
+:c:func:`video_std_construct()` helper function takes id and
+transmission arguments.
+
+1998-09-28: Revamped video standard. Made video controls individually
+enumerable.
+
+1998-10-02: The ``id`` field was removed from struct
+:c:type:`struct video_standard` and the color subcarrier fields were
+renamed. The :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD <vidioc-querystd>` ioctl was
+renamed to :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMSTD <vidioc-enumstd>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` to
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>`. A first draft of the
+Codec API was released.
+
+1998-11-08: Many minor changes. Most symbols have been renamed. Some
+material changes to struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>`.
+
+1998-11-12: The read/write directon of some ioctls was misdefined.
+
+1998-11-14: ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB24`` changed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR24``,
+and ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB32`` changed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR32``. Audio
+controls are now accessible with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` ioctls under names starting
+with ``V4L2_CID_AUDIO``. The ``V4L2_MAJOR`` define was removed from
+``videodev.h`` since it was only used once in the ``videodev`` kernel
+module. The ``YUV422`` and ``YUV411`` planar image formats were added.
+
+1998-11-28: A few ioctl symbols changed. Interfaces for codecs and video
+output devices were added.
+
+1999-01-14: A raw VBI capture interface was added.
+
+1999-01-19: The ``VIDIOC_NEXTBUF`` ioctl was removed.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.16 1999-01-31
+============================
+
+1999-01-27: There is now one QBUF ioctl, VIDIOC_QWBUF and VIDIOC_QRBUF
+are gone. VIDIOC_QBUF takes a v4l2_buffer as a parameter. Added
+digital zoom (cropping) controls.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.18 1999-03-16
+============================
+
+Added a v4l to V4L2 ioctl compatibility layer to videodev.c. Driver
+writers, this changes how you implement your ioctl handler. See the
+Driver Writer's Guide. Added some more control id codes.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.19 1999-06-05
+============================
+
+1999-03-18: Fill in the category and catname fields of v4l2_queryctrl
+objects before passing them to the driver. Required a minor change to
+the VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL handlers in the sample drivers.
+
+1999-03-31: Better compatibility for v4l memory capture ioctls. Requires
+changes to drivers to fully support new compatibility features, see
+Driver Writer's Guide and v4l2cap.c. Added new control IDs:
+V4L2_CID_HFLIP, _VFLIP. Changed V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV422P to _YUV422P,
+and _YUV411P to _YUV411P.
+
+1999-04-04: Added a few more control IDs.
+
+1999-04-07: Added the button control type.
+
+1999-05-02: Fixed a typo in videodev.h, and added the
+V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_GRAYED (later V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_GRABBED) flag.
+
+1999-05-20: Definition of VIDIOC_G_CTRL was wrong causing a
+malfunction of this ioctl.
+
+1999-06-05: Changed the value of V4L2_CID_WHITENESS.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.20 (1999-09-10)
+==============================
+
+Version 0.20 introduced a number of changes which were *not backward
+compatible* with 0.19 and earlier versions. Purpose of these changes was
+to simplify the API, while making it more extensible and following
+common Linux driver API conventions.
+
+1. Some typos in ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG`` symbols were fixed. struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_clip <v4l2-clip>` was changed for compatibility with
+ v4l. (1999-08-30)
+
+2. ``V4L2_TUNER_SUB_LANG1`` was added. (1999-09-05)
+
+3. All ioctl() commands that used an integer argument now take a pointer
+ to an integer. Where it makes sense, ioctls will return the actual
+ new value in the integer pointed to by the argument, a common
+ convention in the V4L2 API. The affected ioctls are: VIDIOC_PREVIEW,
+ VIDIOC_STREAMON, VIDIOC_STREAMOFF, VIDIOC_S_FREQ,
+ VIDIOC_S_INPUT, VIDIOC_S_OUTPUT, VIDIOC_S_EFFECT. For example
+
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ err = ioctl (fd, VIDIOC_XXX, V4L2_XXX);
+
+ becomes
+
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ int a = V4L2_XXX; err = ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_XXX, &a);
+
+4. All the different get- and set-format commands were swept into one
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl taking a union and a
+ type field selecting the union member as parameter. Purpose is to
+ simplify the API by eliminating several ioctls and to allow new and
+ driver private data streams without adding new ioctls.
+
+ This change obsoletes the following ioctls: ``VIDIOC_S_INFMT``,
+ ``VIDIOC_G_INFMT``, ``VIDIOC_S_OUTFMT``, ``VIDIOC_G_OUTFMT``,
+ ``VIDIOC_S_VBIFMT`` and ``VIDIOC_G_VBIFMT``. The image format
+ structure :c:type:`struct v4l2_format` was renamed to struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>`, while struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` is now the envelopping structure
+ for all format negotiations.
+
+5. Similar to the changes above, the ``VIDIOC_G_PARM`` and
+ ``VIDIOC_S_PARM`` ioctls were merged with ``VIDIOC_G_OUTPARM`` and
+ ``VIDIOC_S_OUTPARM``. A ``type`` field in the new struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_streamparm <v4l2-streamparm>` selects the respective
+ union member.
+
+ This change obsoletes the ``VIDIOC_G_OUTPARM`` and
+ ``VIDIOC_S_OUTPARM`` ioctls.
+
+6. Control enumeration was simplified, and two new control flags were
+ introduced and one dropped. The ``catname`` field was replaced by a
+ ``group`` field.
+
+ Drivers can now flag unsupported and temporarily unavailable controls
+ with ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED`` and ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_GRABBED``
+ respectively. The ``group`` name indicates a possibly narrower
+ classification than the ``category``. In other words, there may be
+ multiple groups within a category. Controls within a group would
+ typically be drawn within a group box. Controls in different
+ categories might have a greater separation, or may even appear in
+ separate windows.
+
+7. The struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``timestamp`` was
+ changed to a 64 bit integer, containing the sampling or output time
+ of the frame in nanoseconds. Additionally timestamps will be in
+ absolute system time, not starting from zero at the beginning of a
+ stream. The data type name for timestamps is stamp_t, defined as a
+ signed 64-bit integer. Output devices should not send a buffer out
+ until the time in the timestamp field has arrived. I would like to
+ follow SGI's lead, and adopt a multimedia timestamping system like
+ their UST (Unadjusted System Time). See
+ http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://reality.sgi.com
+ /cpirazzi_engr/lg/time/intro.html. UST uses timestamps that are
+ 64-bit signed integers (not struct timeval's) and given in nanosecond
+ units. The UST clock starts at zero when the system is booted and
+ runs continuously and uniformly. It takes a little over 292 years for
+ UST to overflow. There is no way to set the UST clock. The regular
+ Linux time-of-day clock can be changed periodically, which would
+ cause errors if it were being used for timestamping a multimedia
+ stream. A real UST style clock will require some support in the
+ kernel that is not there yet. But in anticipation, I will change the
+ timestamp field to a 64-bit integer, and I will change the
+ v4l2_masterclock_gettime() function (used only by drivers) to
+ return a 64-bit integer.
+
+8. A ``sequence`` field was added to struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>`. The ``sequence`` field counts
+ captured frames, it is ignored by output devices. When a capture
+ driver drops a frame, the sequence number of that frame is skipped.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.20 incremental changes
+=====================================
+
+1999-12-23: In struct :ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>` the
+``reserved1`` field became ``offset``. Previously drivers were required
+to clear the ``reserved1`` field.
+
+2000-01-13: The ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG_NOT_INTERLACED`` flag was added.
+
+2000-07-31: The ``linux/poll.h`` header is now included by
+``videodev.h`` for compatibility with the original ``videodev.h`` file.
+
+2000-11-20: ``V4L2_TYPE_VBI_OUTPUT`` and ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y41P`` were
+added.
+
+2000-11-25: ``V4L2_TYPE_VBI_INPUT`` was added.
+
+2000-12-04: A couple typos in symbol names were fixed.
+
+2001-01-18: To avoid namespace conflicts the ``fourcc`` macro defined in
+the ``videodev.h`` header file was renamed to ``v4l2_fourcc``.
+
+2001-01-25: A possible driver-level compatibility problem between the
+``videodev.h`` file in Linux 2.4.0 and the ``videodev.h`` file included
+in the ``videodevX`` patch was fixed. Users of an earlier version of
+``videodevX`` on Linux 2.4.0 should recompile their V4L and V4L2
+drivers.
+
+2001-01-26: A possible kernel-level incompatibility between the
+``videodev.h`` file in the ``videodevX`` patch and the ``videodev.h``
+file in Linux 2.2.x with devfs patches applied was fixed.
+
+2001-03-02: Certain V4L ioctls which pass data in both direction
+although they are defined with read-only parameter, did not work
+correctly through the backward compatibility layer. [Solution?]
+
+2001-04-13: Big endian 16-bit RGB formats were added.
+
+2001-09-17: New YUV formats and the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` ioctls were added.
+(The old ``VIDIOC_G_FREQ`` and ``VIDIOC_S_FREQ`` ioctls did not take
+multiple tuners into account.)
+
+2000-09-18: ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI`` was added. This may *break
+compatibility* as the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctls may fail now if the struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_fmt` ``type`` field does not contain
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI``. In the documentation of the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>` ``offset`` field the
+ambiguous phrase "rising edge" was changed to "leading edge".
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.20 2000-11-23
+============================
+
+A number of changes were made to the raw VBI interface.
+
+1. Figures clarifying the line numbering scheme were added to the V4L2
+ API specification. The ``start``\ [0] and ``start``\ [1] fields no
+ longer count line numbers beginning at zero. Rationale: a) The
+ previous definition was unclear. b) The ``start``\ [] values are
+ ordinal numbers. c) There is no point in inventing a new line
+ numbering scheme. We now use line number as defined by ITU-R, period.
+ Compatibility: Add one to the start values. Applications depending on
+ the previous semantics may not function correctly.
+
+2. The restriction "count[0] > 0 and count[1] > 0" has been relaxed to
+ "(count[0] + count[1]) > 0". Rationale: Drivers may allocate
+ resources at scan line granularity and some data services are
+ transmitted only on the first field. The comment that both ``count``
+ values will usually be equal is misleading and pointless and has been
+ removed. This change *breaks compatibility* with earlier versions:
+ Drivers may return EINVAL, applications may not function correctly.
+
+3. Drivers are again permitted to return negative (unknown) start values
+ as proposed earlier. Why this feature was dropped is unclear. This
+ change may *break compatibility* with applications depending on the
+ start values being positive. The use of ``EBUSY`` and ``EINVAL``
+ error codes with the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl was
+ clarified. The EBUSY error code was finally documented, and the
+ ``reserved2`` field which was previously mentioned only in the
+ ``videodev.h`` header file.
+
+4. New buffer types ``V4L2_TYPE_VBI_INPUT`` and ``V4L2_TYPE_VBI_OUTPUT``
+ were added. The former is an alias for the old ``V4L2_TYPE_VBI``, the
+ latter was missing in the ``videodev.h`` file.
+
+
+V4L2 Version 0.20 2002-07-25
+============================
+
+Added sliced VBI interface proposal.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.5.46, 2002-10
+=============================
+
+Around October-November 2002, prior to an announced feature freeze of
+Linux 2.5, the API was revised, drawing from experience with V4L2 0.20.
+This unnamed version was finally merged into Linux 2.5.46.
+
+1. As specified in :ref:`related`, drivers must make related device
+ functions available under all minor device numbers.
+
+2. The :ref:`open() <func-open>` function requires access mode
+ ``O_RDWR`` regardless of the device type. All V4L2 drivers
+ exchanging data with applications must support the ``O_NONBLOCK``
+ flag. The ``O_NOIO`` flag, a V4L2 symbol which aliased the
+ meaningless ``O_TRUNC`` to indicate accesses without data exchange
+ (panel applications) was dropped. Drivers must stay in "panel mode"
+ until the application attempts to initiate a data exchange, see
+ :ref:`open`.
+
+3. The struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` changed
+ dramatically. Note that also the size of the structure changed,
+ which is encoded in the ioctl request code, thus older V4L2 devices
+ will respond with an EINVAL error code to the new
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl.
+
+ There are new fields to identify the driver, a new RDS device
+ function ``V4L2_CAP_RDS_CAPTURE``, the ``V4L2_CAP_AUDIO`` flag
+ indicates if the device has any audio connectors, another I/O
+ capability ``V4L2_CAP_ASYNCIO`` can be flagged. In response to these
+ changes the ``type`` field became a bit set and was merged into the
+ ``flags`` field. ``V4L2_FLAG_TUNER`` was renamed to
+ ``V4L2_CAP_TUNER``, ``V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_OVERLAY`` replaced
+ ``V4L2_FLAG_PREVIEW`` and ``V4L2_CAP_VBI_CAPTURE`` and
+ ``V4L2_CAP_VBI_OUTPUT`` replaced ``V4L2_FLAG_DATA_SERVICE``.
+ ``V4L2_FLAG_READ`` and ``V4L2_FLAG_WRITE`` were merged into
+ ``V4L2_CAP_READWRITE``.
+
+ The redundant fields ``inputs``, ``outputs`` and ``audios`` were
+ removed. These properties can be determined as described in
+ :ref:`video` and :ref:`audio`.
+
+ The somewhat volatile and therefore barely useful fields
+ ``maxwidth``, ``maxheight``, ``minwidth``, ``minheight``,
+ ``maxframerate`` were removed. This information is available as
+ described in :ref:`format` and :ref:`standard`.
+
+ ``V4L2_FLAG_SELECT`` was removed. We believe the select() function
+ is important enough to require support of it in all V4L2 drivers
+ exchanging data with applications. The redundant
+ ``V4L2_FLAG_MONOCHROME`` flag was removed, this information is
+ available as described in :ref:`format`.
+
+4. In struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` the ``assoc_audio``
+ field and the ``capability`` field and its only flag
+ ``V4L2_INPUT_CAP_AUDIO`` was replaced by the new ``audioset`` field.
+ Instead of linking one video input to one audio input this field
+ reports all audio inputs this video input combines with.
+
+ New fields are ``tuner`` (reversing the former link from tuners to
+ video inputs), ``std`` and ``status``.
+
+ Accordingly struct :ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>` lost its
+ ``capability`` and ``assoc_audio`` fields. ``audioset``,
+ ``modulator`` and ``std`` where added instead.
+
+5. The struct :ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` field ``audio`` was
+ renamed to ``index``, for consistency with other structures. A new
+ capability flag ``V4L2_AUDCAP_STEREO`` was added to indicated if the
+ audio input in question supports stereo sound.
+ ``V4L2_AUDCAP_EFFECTS`` and the corresponding ``V4L2_AUDMODE`` flags
+ where removed. This can be easily implemented using controls.
+ (However the same applies to AVL which is still there.)
+
+ Again for consistency the struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_audioout <v4l2-audioout>` field ``audio`` was renamed
+ to ``index``.
+
+6. The struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` ``input`` field was
+ replaced by an ``index`` field, permitting devices with multiple
+ tuners. The link between video inputs and tuners is now reversed,
+ inputs point to their tuner. The ``std`` substructure became a
+ simple set (more about this below) and moved into struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`. A ``type`` field was added.
+
+ Accordingly in struct :ref:`v4l2_modulator <v4l2-modulator>` the
+ ``output`` was replaced by an ``index`` field.
+
+ In struct :ref:`v4l2_frequency <v4l2-frequency>` the ``port``
+ field was replaced by a ``tuner`` field containing the respective
+ tuner or modulator index number. A tuner ``type`` field was added
+ and the ``reserved`` field became larger for future extensions
+ (satellite tuners in particular).
+
+7. The idea of completely transparent video standards was dropped.
+ Experience showed that applications must be able to work with video
+ standards beyond presenting the user a menu. Instead of enumerating
+ supported standards with an ioctl applications can now refer to
+ standards by :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` and symbols
+ defined in the ``videodev2.h`` header file. For details see
+ :ref:`standard`. The :ref:`VIDIOC_G_STD <vidioc-g-std>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_STD <vidioc-g-std>` now take a pointer to this
+ type as argument. :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD <vidioc-querystd>` was
+ added to autodetect the received standard, if the hardware has this
+ capability. In struct :ref:`v4l2_standard <v4l2-standard>` an
+ ``index`` field was added for
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMSTD <vidioc-enumstd>`. A
+ :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` field named ``id`` was added as
+ machine readable identifier, also replacing the ``transmission``
+ field. The misleading ``framerate`` field was renamed to
+ ``frameperiod``. The now obsolete ``colorstandard`` information,
+ originally needed to distguish between variations of standards, were
+ removed.
+
+ Struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_enumstd` ceased to be.
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMSTD <vidioc-enumstd>` now takes a pointer to a
+ struct :ref:`v4l2_standard <v4l2-standard>` directly. The
+ information which standards are supported by a particular video
+ input or output moved into struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`
+ and struct :ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>` fields named ``std``,
+ respectively.
+
+8. The struct :ref:`v4l2_queryctrl <v4l2-queryctrl>` fields
+ ``category`` and ``group`` did not catch on and/or were not
+ implemented as expected and therefore removed.
+
+9. The :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl was added to
+ negotiate data formats as with
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`, but without the overhead of
+ programming the hardware and regardless of I/O in progress.
+
+ In struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` the ``fmt`` union was
+ extended to contain struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`. All
+ image format negotiations are now possible with ``VIDIOC_G_FMT``,
+ ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT``; ioctl. The ``VIDIOC_G_WIN``
+ and ``VIDIOC_S_WIN`` ioctls to prepare for a video overlay were
+ removed. The ``type`` field changed to type enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_buf_type <v4l2-buf-type>` and the buffer type names
+ changed as follows.
+
+
+
+ .. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 1

+

+
+ - ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_PRIVATE`` (but this is deprecated)
+
+
+10. In struct :ref:`v4l2_fmtdesc <v4l2-fmtdesc>` a enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_buf_type <v4l2-buf-type>` field named ``type`` was
+ added as in struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>`. The
+ ``VIDIOC_ENUM_FBUFFMT`` ioctl is no longer needed and was removed.
+ These calls can be replaced by
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT <vidioc-enum-fmt>` with type
+ ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY``.
+
+11. In struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` the ``depth``
+ field was removed, assuming applications which recognize the format
+ by its four-character-code already know the color depth, and others
+ do not care about it. The same rationale lead to the removal of the
+ ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG_COMPRESSED`` flag. The
+ ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG_SWCONVECOMPRESSED`` flag was removed because drivers
+ are not supposed to convert images in kernel space. A user library
+ of conversion functions should be provided instead. The
+ ``V4L2_FMT_FLAG_BYTESPERLINE`` flag was redundant. Applications can
+ set the ``bytesperline`` field to zero to get a reasonable default.
+ Since the remaining flags were replaced as well, the ``flags`` field
+ itself was removed.
+
+ The interlace flags were replaced by a enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_field <v4l2-field>` value in a newly added ``field``
+ field.
+
+
+
+ .. flat-table::

+
+
+ The color space flags were replaced by a enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_colorspace <v4l2-colorspace>` value in a newly added
+ ``colorspace`` field, where one of ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_SMPTE170M``,
+ ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_BT878``, ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_470_SYSTEM_M`` or
+ ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_470_SYSTEM_BG`` replaces ``V4L2_FMT_CS_601YUV``.
+
+12. In struct :ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` the
+ ``type`` field was properly defined as enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_buf_type <v4l2-buf-type>`. Buffer types changed as
+ mentioned above. A new ``memory`` field of type enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_memory <v4l2-memory>` was added to distinguish between
+ I/O methods using buffers allocated by the driver or the
+ application. See :ref:`io` for details.
+
+13. In struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` the ``type`` field was
+ properly defined as enum :ref:`v4l2_buf_type <v4l2-buf-type>`.
+ Buffer types changed as mentioned above. A ``field`` field of type
+ enum :ref:`v4l2_field <v4l2-field>` was added to indicate if a
+ buffer contains a top or bottom field. The old field flags were
+ removed. Since no unadjusted system time clock was added to the
+ kernel as planned, the ``timestamp`` field changed back from type
+ stamp_t, an unsigned 64 bit integer expressing the sample time in
+ nanoseconds, to struct :c:type:`struct timeval`. With the addition
+ of a second memory mapping method the ``offset`` field moved into
+ union ``m``, and a new ``memory`` field of type enum
+ :ref:`v4l2_memory <v4l2-memory>` was added to distinguish between
+ I/O methods. See :ref:`io` for details.
+
+ The ``V4L2_BUF_REQ_CONTIG`` flag was used by the V4L compatibility
+ layer, after changes to this code it was no longer needed. The
+ ``V4L2_BUF_ATTR_DEVICEMEM`` flag would indicate if the buffer was
+ indeed allocated in device memory rather than DMA-able system
+ memory. It was barely useful and so was removed.
+
+14. In struct :ref:`v4l2_framebuffer <v4l2-framebuffer>` the
+ ``base[3]`` array anticipating double- and triple-buffering in
+ off-screen video memory, however without defining a synchronization
+ mechanism, was replaced by a single pointer. The
+ ``V4L2_FBUF_CAP_SCALEUP`` and ``V4L2_FBUF_CAP_SCALEDOWN`` flags were
+ removed. Applications can determine this capability more accurately
+ using the new cropping and scaling interface. The
+ ``V4L2_FBUF_CAP_CLIPPING`` flag was replaced by
+ ``V4L2_FBUF_CAP_LIST_CLIPPING`` and
+ ``V4L2_FBUF_CAP_BITMAP_CLIPPING``.
+
+15. In struct :ref:`v4l2_clip <v4l2-clip>` the ``x``, ``y``,
+ ``width`` and ``height`` field moved into a ``c`` substructure of
+ type struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>`. The ``x`` and ``y``
+ fields were renamed to ``left`` and ``top``, i. e. offsets to a
+ context dependent origin.
+
+16. In struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>` the ``x``, ``y``,
+ ``width`` and ``height`` field moved into a ``w`` substructure as
+ above. A ``field`` field of type %v4l2-field; was added to
+ distinguish between field and frame (interlaced) overlay.
+
+17. The digital zoom interface, including struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_zoomcap`, struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_zoom`, ``V4L2_ZOOM_NONCAP`` and
+ ``V4L2_ZOOM_WHILESTREAMING`` was replaced by a new cropping and
+ scaling interface. The previously unused struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_cropcap` and :c:type:`struct v4l2_crop`
+ where redefined for this purpose. See :ref:`crop` for details.
+
+18. In struct :ref:`v4l2_vbi_format <v4l2-vbi-format>` the
+ ``SAMPLE_FORMAT`` field now contains a four-character-code as used
+ to identify video image formats and ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_GREY`` replaces
+ the ``V4L2_VBI_SF_UBYTE`` define. The ``reserved`` field was
+ extended.
+
+19. In struct :ref:`v4l2_captureparm <v4l2-captureparm>` the type of
+ the ``timeperframe`` field changed from unsigned long to struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_fract <v4l2-fract>`. This allows the accurate
+ expression of multiples of the NTSC-M frame rate 30000 / 1001. A new
+ field ``readbuffers`` was added to control the driver behaviour in
+ read I/O mode.
+
+ Similar changes were made to struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_outputparm <v4l2-outputparm>`.
+
+20. The struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_performance` and
+ ``VIDIOC_G_PERF`` ioctl were dropped. Except when using the
+ :ref:`read/write I/O method <rw>`, which is limited anyway, this
+ information is already available to applications.
+
+21. The example transformation from RGB to YCbCr color space in the old
+ V4L2 documentation was inaccurate, this has been corrected in
+ :ref:`pixfmt`.
+
+
+V4L2 2003-06-19
+===============
+
+1. A new capability flag ``V4L2_CAP_RADIO`` was added for radio devices.
+ Prior to this change radio devices would identify solely by having
+ exactly one tuner whose type field reads ``V4L2_TUNER_RADIO``.
+
+2. An optional driver access priority mechanism was added, see
+ :ref:`app-pri` for details.
+
+3. The audio input and output interface was found to be incomplete.
+
+ Previously the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` ioctl would
+ enumerate the available audio inputs. An ioctl to determine the
+ current audio input, if more than one combines with the current video
+ input, did not exist. So ``VIDIOC_G_AUDIO`` was renamed to
+ ``VIDIOC_G_AUDIO_OLD``, this ioctl was removed on Kernel 2.6.39. The
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMAUDIO <vidioc-enumaudio>` ioctl was added to
+ enumerate audio inputs, while
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDIO <vidioc-g-audio>` now reports the current
+ audio input.
+
+ The same changes were made to
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_AUDOUT <vidioc-g-audioout>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMAUDOUT <vidioc-enumaudioout>`.
+
+ Until further the "videodev" module will automatically translate
+ between the old and new ioctls, but drivers and applications must be
+ updated to successfully compile again.
+
+4. The :ref:`VIDIOC_OVERLAY <vidioc-overlay>` ioctl was incorrectly
+ defined with write-read parameter. It was changed to write-only,
+ while the write-read version was renamed to ``VIDIOC_OVERLAY_OLD``.
+ The old ioctl was removed on Kernel 2.6.39. Until further the
+ "videodev" kernel module will automatically translate to the new
+ version, so drivers must be recompiled, but not applications.
+
+5. :ref:`overlay` incorrectly stated that clipping rectangles define
+ regions where the video can be seen. Correct is that clipping
+ rectangles define regions where *no* video shall be displayed and so
+ the graphics surface can be seen.
+
+6. The :ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_CTRL <vidioc-g-ctrl>` ioctls were defined with
+ write-only parameter, inconsistent with other ioctls modifying their
+ argument. They were changed to write-read, while a ``_OLD`` suffix
+ was added to the write-only versions. The old ioctls were removed on
+ Kernel 2.6.39. Drivers and applications assuming a constant parameter
+ need an update.
+
+
+V4L2 2003-11-05

+ pixel formats was accordingly corrected.
+
+2. Unrelated to the fixes above, drivers may still interpret some V4L2
+ RGB pixel formats differently. These issues have yet to be addressed,
+ for details see :ref:`pixfmt-rgb`.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.6, 2004-05-09
+===============================
+
+1. The :ref:`VIDIOC_CROPCAP <vidioc-cropcap>` ioctl was incorrectly
+ defined with read-only parameter. It is now defined as write-read
+ ioctl, while the read-only version was renamed to
+ ``VIDIOC_CROPCAP_OLD``. The old ioctl was removed on Kernel 2.6.39.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.8
+===================
+
+1. A new field ``input`` (former ``reserved[0]``) was added to the
+ struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` structure. Purpose of this
+ field is to alternate between video inputs (e. g. cameras) in step
+ with the video capturing process. This function must be enabled with
+ the new ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_INPUT`` flag. The ``flags`` field is no
+ longer read-only.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2004-08-01
+============================
+
+1. The return value of the :ref:`func-open` function was incorrectly
+ documented.
+
+2. Audio output ioctls end in -AUDOUT, not -AUDIOOUT.
+
+3. In the Current Audio Input example the ``VIDIOC_G_AUDIO`` ioctl took
+ the wrong argument.
+
+4. The documentation of the :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctls did not mention the
+ struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``memory`` field. It was
+ also missing from examples. Also on the ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` page the EIO
+ error code was not documented.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.14
+====================
+
+1. A new sliced VBI interface was added. It is documented in
+ :ref:`sliced` and replaces the interface first proposed in V4L2
+ specification 0.8.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.15
+====================
+
+1. The :ref:`VIDIOC_LOG_STATUS <vidioc-log-status>` ioctl was added.
+
+2. New video standards ``V4L2_STD_NTSC_443``, ``V4L2_STD_SECAM_LC``,
+ ``V4L2_STD_SECAM_DK`` (a set of SECAM D, K and K1), and
+ ``V4L2_STD_ATSC`` (a set of ``V4L2_STD_ATSC_8_VSB`` and
+ ``V4L2_STD_ATSC_16_VSB``) were defined. Note the ``V4L2_STD_525_60``
+ set now includes ``V4L2_STD_NTSC_443``. See also
+ :ref:`v4l2-std-id`.
+
+3. The ``VIDIOC_G_COMP`` and ``VIDIOC_S_COMP`` ioctl were renamed to
+ ``VIDIOC_G_MPEGCOMP`` and ``VIDIOC_S_MPEGCOMP`` respectively. Their
+ argument was replaced by a struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_mpeg_compression` pointer. (The
+ ``VIDIOC_G_MPEGCOMP`` and ``VIDIOC_S_MPEGCOMP`` ioctls where removed
+ in Linux 2.6.25.)
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2005-11-27
+============================
+
+The capture example in :ref:`capture-example` called the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_CROP <vidioc-g-crop>` ioctl without checking if
+cropping is supported. In the video standard selection example in
+:ref:`standard` the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_STD <vidioc-g-std>` call used
+the wrong argument type.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2006-01-10
+============================
+
+1. The ``V4L2_IN_ST_COLOR_KILL`` flag in struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` not only indicates if the color
+ killer is enabled, but also if it is active. (The color killer
+ disables color decoding when it detects no color in the video signal
+ to improve the image quality.)
+
+2. :ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` is a write-read ioctl, not
+ write-only as stated on its reference page. The ioctl changed in 2003
+ as noted above.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2006-02-03
+============================
+
+1. In struct :ref:`v4l2_captureparm <v4l2-captureparm>` and struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_outputparm <v4l2-outputparm>` the ``timeperframe``
+ field gives the time in seconds, not microseconds.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2006-02-04
+============================
+
+1. The ``clips`` field in struct :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`
+ must point to an array of struct :ref:`v4l2_clip <v4l2-clip>`, not
+ a linked list, because drivers ignore the struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_clip`. ``next`` pointer.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.17
+====================
+
+1. New video standard macros were added: ``V4L2_STD_NTSC_M_KR`` (NTSC M
+ South Korea), and the sets ``V4L2_STD_MN``, ``V4L2_STD_B``,
+ ``V4L2_STD_GH`` and ``V4L2_STD_DK``. The ``V4L2_STD_NTSC`` and
+ ``V4L2_STD_SECAM`` sets now include ``V4L2_STD_NTSC_M_KR`` and
+ ``V4L2_STD_SECAM_LC`` respectively.
+
+2. A new ``V4L2_TUNER_MODE_LANG1_LANG2`` was defined to record both
+ languages of a bilingual program. The use of
+ ``V4L2_TUNER_MODE_STEREO`` for this purpose is deprecated now. See
+ the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` section for details.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2006-09-23 (Draft 0.15)
+=========================================
+
+1. In various places ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_CAPTURE`` and
+ ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_SLICED_VBI_OUTPUT`` of the sliced VBI interface were
+ not mentioned along with other buffer types.
+
+2. In :ref:`vidioc-g-audio` it was clarified that the struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_audio <v4l2-audio>` ``mode`` field is a flags field.
+
+3. :ref:`vidioc-querycap` did not mention the sliced VBI and radio
+ capability flags.
+
+4. In :ref:`vidioc-g-frequency` it was clarified that applications
+ must initialize the tuner ``type`` field of struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_frequency <v4l2-frequency>` before calling
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>`.
+
+5. The ``reserved`` array in struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` has 2 elements,
+ not 32.
+
+6. In :ref:`output` and :ref:`raw-vbi` the device file names
+ ``/dev/vout`` which never caught on were replaced by ``/dev/video``.
+
+7. With Linux 2.6.15 the possible range for VBI device minor numbers was
+ extended from 224-239 to 224-255. Accordingly device file names
+ ``/dev/vbi0`` to ``/dev/vbi31`` are possible now.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.18
+====================
+
+1. New ioctls :ref:`VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>`,
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>` and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>` were added, a
+ flag to skip unsupported controls with
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>`, new control types
+ ``V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_INTEGER64`` and ``V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_CTRL_CLASS``
+ (:ref:`v4l2-ctrl-type`), and new control flags
+ ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_READ_ONLY``, ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_UPDATE``,
+ ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_INACTIVE`` and ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_SLIDER``
+ (:ref:`control-flags`). See :ref:`extended-controls` for details.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.19
+====================
+
+1. In struct :ref:`v4l2_sliced_vbi_cap <v4l2-sliced-vbi-cap>` a
+ buffer type field was added replacing a reserved field. Note on
+ architectures where the size of enum types differs from int types the
+ size of the structure changed. The
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G_SLICED_VBI_CAP <vidioc-g-sliced-vbi-cap>` ioctl
+ was redefined from being read-only to write-read. Applications must
+ initialize the type field and clear the reserved fields now. These
+ changes may *break the compatibility* with older drivers and
+ applications.
+
+2. The ioctls :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES <vidioc-enum-framesizes>`
+ and
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMEINTERVALS <vidioc-enum-frameintervals>`
+ were added.
+
+3. A new pixel format ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB444`` (:ref:`rgb-formats`) was
+ added.
+
+
+V4L2 spec erratum 2006-10-12 (Draft 0.17)
+=========================================
+
+1. ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_HM12`` (:ref:`reserved-formats`) is a YUV 4:2:0, not
+ 4:2:2 format.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.21
+====================
+
+1. The ``videodev2.h`` header file is now dual licensed under GNU
+ General Public License version two or later, and under a 3-clause
+ BSD-style license.
+
+
+V4L2 in Linux 2.6.22
+====================
+
+1. Two new field orders ``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED_TB`` and
+ ``V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED_BT`` were added. See :ref:`v4l2-field` for
+ details.
+
+2. Three new clipping/blending methods with a global or straight or
+ inverted local alpha value were added to the video overlay interface.
+ See the description of the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`
+ and :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>` ioctls for details.
+
+ A new ``global_alpha`` field was added to
+ :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>`, extending the structure. This
+ may *break compatibility* with applications using a struct
+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_window` directly. However the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_G/S/TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctls, which take a
+ pointer to a :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` parent structure
+ with padding bytes at the end, are not affected.
+
+3. The format of the ``chromakey`` field in struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_window <v4l2-window>` changed from "host order RGB32"
+ to a pixel value in the same format as the framebuffer. This may
+ *break compatibility* with existing applications. Drivers supporting
+ the "host order RGB32" format are not known.

+
+Relation of V4L2 to other Linux multimedia APIs
+===============================================
+
+
+.. _xvideo:
+
+X Video Extension
+-----------------
+
+The X Video Extension (abbreviated XVideo or just Xv) is an extension of
+the X Window system, implemented for example by the XFree86 project. Its
+scope is similar to V4L2, an API to video capture and output devices for
+X clients. Xv allows applications to display live video in a window,
+send window contents to a TV output, and capture or output still images
+in XPixmaps [1]_. With their implementation XFree86 makes the extension
+available across many operating systems and architectures.
+
+Because the driver is embedded into the X server Xv has a number of
+advantages over the V4L2 :ref:`video overlay interface <overlay>`. The
+driver can easily determine the overlay target, i. e. visible graphics
+memory or off-screen buffers for a destructive overlay. It can program
+the RAMDAC for a non-destructive overlay, scaling or color-keying, or
+the clipping functions of the video capture hardware, always in sync
+with drawing operations or windows moving or changing their stacking
+order.
+
+To combine the advantages of Xv and V4L a special Xv driver exists in
+XFree86 and XOrg, just programming any overlay capable Video4Linux
+device it finds. To enable it ``/etc/X11/XF86Config`` must contain these
+lines:
+
+
+
+::
+
+ Section "Module"
+ Load "v4l"
+ EndSection
+As of XFree86 4.2 this driver still supports only V4L ioctls, however it
+should work just fine with all V4L2 devices through the V4L2
+backward-compatibility layer. Since V4L2 permits multiple opens it is
+possible (if supported by the V4L2 driver) to capture video while an X
+client requested video overlay. Restrictions of simultaneous capturing
+and overlay are discussed in :ref:`overlay` apply.
+
+Only marginally related to V4L2, XFree86 extended Xv to support hardware
+YUV to RGB conversion and scaling for faster video playback, and added
+an interface to MPEG-2 decoding hardware. This API is useful to display
+images captured with V4L2 devices.
+
+
+Digital Video
+-------------
+
+V4L2 does not support digital terrestrial, cable or satellite broadcast.
+A separate project aiming at digital receivers exists. You can find its
+homepage at `https://linuxtv.org <https://linuxtv.org>`__. The Linux
+DVB API has no connection to the V4L2 API except that drivers for hybrid
+hardware may support both.

+############
+Input/Output
+############
+The V4L2 API defines several different methods to read from or write to
+a device. All drivers exchanging data with applications must support at
+least one of them.
+
+The classic I/O method using the :c:func:`read()` and
+:c:func:`write()` function is automatically selected after opening a
+V4L2 device. When the driver does not support this method attempts to
+read or write will fail at any time.
+
+Other methods must be negotiated. To select the streaming I/O method
+with memory mapped or user buffers applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl. The asynchronous I/O
+method is not defined yet.
+
+Video overlay can be considered another I/O method, although the
+application does not directly receive the image data. It is selected by
+initiating video overlay with the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ioctl. For more information see :ref:`overlay`.
+
+Generally exactly one I/O method, including overlay, is associated with
+each file descriptor. The only exceptions are applications not
+exchanging data with a driver ("panel applications", see :ref:`open`)
+and drivers permitting simultaneous video capturing and overlay using
+the same file descriptor, for compatibility with V4L and earlier
+versions of V4L2.
+
+``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_REQBUFS`` would permit this to some
+degree, but for simplicity drivers need not support switching the I/O
+method (after first switching away from read/write) other than by
+closing and reopening the device.
+
+The following sections describe the various I/O methods in more detail.

+
+************
+Introduction
+************
+
+libv4l is a collection of libraries which adds a thin abstraction layer
+on top of video4linux2 devices. The purpose of this (thin) layer is to
+make it easy for application writers to support a wide variety of
+devices without having to write separate code for different devices in
+the same class.
+
+An example of using libv4l is provided by
+:ref:`v4l2grab <v4l2grab-example>`.
+
+libv4l consists of 3 different libraries:
+
+
+libv4lconvert
+=============
+
+libv4lconvert is a library that converts several different pixelformats
+found in V4L2 drivers into a few common RGB and YUY formats.
+
+It currently accepts the following V4L2 driver formats:
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR24 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-BGR24>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_HM12 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-HM12>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_JPEG <V4L2-PIX-FMT-JPEG>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_MJPEG <V4L2-PIX-FMT-MJPEG>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_MR97310A <V4L2-PIX-FMT-MR97310A>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_OV511 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-OV511>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_OV518 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-OV518>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_PAC207 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-PAC207>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_PJPG <V4L2-PIX-FMT-PJPG>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB24 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-RGB24>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SBGGR8>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SGBRG8 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SGBRG8>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SGRBG8 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SGRBG8>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SN9C10X <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SN9C10X>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SN9C20X_I420 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SN9C20X-I420>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SPCA501 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SPCA501>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SPCA505 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SPCA505>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SPCA508 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SPCA508>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SPCA561 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SPCA561>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_SQ905C <V4L2-PIX-FMT-SQ905C>`,
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_SRGGB8``,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_UYVY <V4L2-PIX-FMT-UYVY>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YUV420>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUYV <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YUYV>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YVU420>`, and
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVYU <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YVYU>`.
+
+Later on libv4lconvert was expanded to also be able to do various video
+processing functions to improve webcam video quality. The video
+processing is split in to 2 parts: libv4lconvert/control and
+libv4lconvert/processing.
+
+The control part is used to offer video controls which can be used to
+control the video processing functions made available by
+libv4lconvert/processing. These controls are stored application wide
+(until reboot) by using a persistent shared memory object.
+
+libv4lconvert/processing offers the actual video processing
+functionality.
+
+
+libv4l1
+=======
+
+This library offers functions that can be used to quickly make v4l1
+applications work with v4l2 devices. These functions work exactly like
+the normal open/close/etc, except that libv4l1 does full emulation of
+the v4l1 api on top of v4l2 drivers, in case of v4l1 drivers it will
+just pass calls through.
+
+Since those functions are emulations of the old V4L1 API, it shouldn't
+be used for new applications.
+
+
+libv4l2
+=======
+
+This library should be used for all modern V4L2 applications.
+
+It provides handles to call V4L2 open/ioctl/close/poll methods. Instead
+of just providing the raw output of the device, it enhances the calls in
+the sense that it will use libv4lconvert to provide more video formats
+and to enhance the image quality.
+
+In most cases, libv4l2 just passes the calls directly through to the
+v4l2 driver, intercepting the calls to
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES <vidioc-enum-framesizes>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMEINTERVALS <vidioc-enum-frameintervals>` in
+order to emulate the formats
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_BGR24 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-BGR24>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_RGB24 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-RGB24>`,
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV420 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YUV420>`, and
+:ref:`V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420 <V4L2-PIX-FMT-YVU420>`, if they aren't
+available in the driver. :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT <vidioc-enum-fmt>`
+keeps enumerating the hardware supported formats, plus the emulated
+formats offered by libv4l at the end.
+
+
+.. _libv4l-ops:
+
+Libv4l device control functions
+-------------------------------
+
+The common file operation methods are provided by libv4l.
+
+Those functions operate just like glibc
+open/close/dup/ioctl/read/mmap/munmap:
+
+- int v4l2_open(const char *file, int oflag, ...) - operates like the
+ standard :ref:`open() <func-open>` function.
+
+- int v4l2_close(int fd) - operates like the standard
+ :ref:`close() <func-close>` function.
+
+- int v4l2_dup(int fd) - operates like the standard dup() function,
+ duplicating a file handler.
+
+- int v4l2_ioctl (int fd, unsigned long int request, ...) - operates
+ like the standard :ref:`ioctl() <func-ioctl>` function.
+
+- int v4l2_read (int fd, void* buffer, size_t n) - operates like the
+ standard :ref:`read() <func-read>` function.
+
+- void v4l2_mmap(void *start, size_t length, int prot, int flags, int
+ fd, int64_t offset); - operates like the standard
+ :ref:`mmap() <func-mmap>` function.
+
+- int v4l2_munmap(void *_start, size_t length); - operates like the
+ standard :ref:`munmap() <func-munmap>` function.
+
+Those functions provide additional control:
+
+- int v4l2_fd_open(int fd, int v4l2_flags) - opens an already opened
+ fd for further use through v4l2lib and possibly modify libv4l2's
+ default behavior through the v4l2_flags argument. Currently,
+ v4l2_flags can be ``V4L2_DISABLE_CONVERSION``, to disable format
+ conversion.
+
+- int v4l2_set_control(int fd, int cid, int value) - This function
+ takes a value of 0 - 65535, and then scales that range to the actual
+ range of the given v4l control id, and then if the cid exists and is
+ not locked sets the cid to the scaled value.
+
+- int v4l2_get_control(int fd, int cid) - This function returns a
+ value of 0 - 65535, scaled to from the actual range of the given v4l
+ control id. when the cid does not exist, could not be accessed for
+ some reason, or some error occurred 0 is returned.
+
+
+v4l1compat.so wrapper library
+=============================
+
+This library intercepts calls to open/close/ioctl/mmap/mmunmap
+operations and redirects them to the libv4l counterparts, by using
+LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/v4l1compat.so. It also emulates V4L1 calls via V4L2
+API.
+
+It allows usage of binary legacy applications that still don't use
+libv4l.

+Introduction

+
+The LIRC device interface is a bi-directional interface for transporting
+raw IR data between userspace and kernelspace. Fundamentally, it is just
+a chardev (/dev/lircX, for X = 0, 1, 2, ...), with a number of standard
+struct file_operations defined on it. With respect to transporting raw
+IR data to and fro, the essential fops are read, write and ioctl.
+
+Example dmesg output upon a driver registering w/LIRC:

+
+ lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 248
+
+ rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (mceusb) registered at minor

+
+.. _lirc_ioctl:
+
+**************
+LIRC ioctl fop
+**************
+
+The LIRC device's ioctl definition is bound by the ioctl function
+definition of struct file_operations, leaving us with an unsigned int
+for the ioctl command and an unsigned long for the arg. For the purposes
+of ioctl portability across 32-bit and 64-bit, these values are capped
+to their 32-bit sizes.
+
+The following ioctls can be used to change specific hardware settings.
+In general each driver should have a default set of settings. The driver
+implementation is expected to re-apply the default settings when the
+device is closed by user-space, so that every application opening the
+device can rely on working with the default settings initially.
+
+LIRC_GET_FEATURES
+ Obviously, get the underlying hardware device's features. If a
+ driver does not announce support of certain features, calling of the
+ corresponding ioctls is undefined.
+
+LIRC_GET_SEND_MODE
+ Get supported transmit mode. Only LIRC_MODE_PULSE is supported by
+ lircd.
+
+LIRC_GET_REC_MODE
+ Get supported receive modes. Only LIRC_MODE_MODE2 and
+ LIRC_MODE_LIRCCODE are supported by lircd.
+
+LIRC_GET_SEND_CARRIER
+ Get carrier frequency (in Hz) currently used for transmit.
+
+LIRC_GET_REC_CARRIER
+ Get carrier frequency (in Hz) currently used for IR reception.
+
+LIRC_{G,S}ET_{SEND,REC}_DUTY_CYCLE
+ Get/set the duty cycle (from 0 to 100) of the carrier signal.
+ Currently, no special meaning is defined for 0 or 100, but this
+ could be used to switch off carrier generation in the future, so
+ these values should be reserved.
+
+LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION
+ Some receiver have maximum resolution which is defined by internal
+ sample rate or data format limitations. E.g. it's common that
+ signals can only be reported in 50 microsecond steps. This integer
+ value is used by lircd to automatically adjust the aeps tolerance
+ value in the lircd config file.
+
+LIRC_GET_M{IN,AX}_TIMEOUT
+ Some devices have internal timers that can be used to detect when
+ there's no IR activity for a long time. This can help lircd in
+ detecting that a IR signal is finished and can speed up the decoding
+ process. Returns an integer value with the minimum/maximum timeout
+ that can be set. Some devices have a fixed timeout, in that case
+ both ioctls will return the same value even though the timeout
+ cannot be changed.
+
+LIRC_GET_M{IN,AX}_FILTER_{PULSE,SPACE}
+ Some devices are able to filter out spikes in the incoming signal
+ using given filter rules. These ioctls return the hardware
+ capabilities that describe the bounds of the possible filters.
+ Filter settings depend on the IR protocols that are expected. lircd
+ derives the settings from all protocols definitions found in its
+ config file.
+
+LIRC_GET_LENGTH
+ Retrieves the code length in bits (only for LIRC_MODE_LIRCCODE).
+ Reads on the device must be done in blocks matching the bit count.
+ The bit could should be rounded up so that it matches full bytes.
+
+LIRC_SET_{SEND,REC}_MODE
+ Set send/receive mode. Largely obsolete for send, as only
+ LIRC_MODE_PULSE is supported.
+
+LIRC_SET_{SEND,REC}_CARRIER
+ Set send/receive carrier (in Hz).
+
+LIRC_SET_TRANSMITTER_MASK
+ This enables the given set of transmitters. The first transmitter is
+ encoded by the least significant bit, etc. When an invalid bit mask
+ is given, i.e. a bit is set, even though the device does not have so
+ many transitters, then this ioctl returns the number of available
+ transitters and does nothing otherwise.
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_TIMEOUT
+ Sets the integer value for IR inactivity timeout (cf.
+ LIRC_GET_MIN_TIMEOUT and LIRC_GET_MAX_TIMEOUT). A value of 0
+ (if supported by the hardware) disables all hardware timeouts and
+ data should be reported as soon as possible. If the exact value
+ cannot be set, then the next possible value _greater_ than the
+ given value should be set.
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_TIMEOUT_REPORTS
+ Enable (1) or disable (0) timeout reports in LIRC_MODE_MODE2. By
+ default, timeout reports should be turned off.
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_FILTER_{,PULSE,SPACE}
+ Pulses/spaces shorter than this are filtered out by hardware. If
+ filters cannot be set independently for pulse/space, the
+ corresponding ioctls must return an error and LIRC_SET_REC_FILTER
+ shall be used instead.
+
+LIRC_SET_MEASURE_CARRIER_MODE
+ Enable (1)/disable (0) measure mode. If enabled, from the next key
+ press on, the driver will send LIRC_MODE2_FREQUENCY packets. By
+ default this should be turned off.
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_{DUTY_CYCLE,CARRIER}_RANGE
+ To set a range use
+ LIRC_SET_REC_DUTY_CYCLE_RANGE/LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE
+ with the lower bound first and later
+ LIRC_SET_REC_DUTY_CYCLE/LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER with the upper
+ bound.
+
+LIRC_NOTIFY_DECODE
+ This ioctl is called by lircd whenever a successful decoding of an
+ incoming IR signal could be done. This can be used by supporting
+ hardware to give visual feedback to the user e.g. by flashing a LED.
+
+LIRC_SETUP_{START,END}
+ Setting of several driver parameters can be optimized by
+ encapsulating the according ioctl calls with
+ LIRC_SETUP_START/LIRC_SETUP_END. When a driver receives a
+ LIRC_SETUP_START ioctl it can choose to not commit further setting
+ changes to the hardware until a LIRC_SETUP_END is received. But
+ this is open to the driver implementation and every driver must also
+ handle parameter changes which are not encapsulated by
+ LIRC_SETUP_START and LIRC_SETUP_END. Drivers can also choose to
+ ignore these ioctls.
+
+LIRC_SET_WIDEBAND_RECEIVER
+ Some receivers are equipped with special wide band receiver which is
+ intended to be used to learn output of existing remote. Calling that
+ ioctl with (1) will enable it, and with (0) disable it. This might
+ be useful of receivers that have otherwise narrow band receiver that
+ prevents them to be used with some remotes. Wide band receiver might
+ also be more precise On the other hand its disadvantage it usually
+ reduced range of reception. Note: wide band receiver might be
+ implictly enabled if you enable carrier reports. In that case it
+ will be disabled as soon as you disable carrier reports. Trying to
+ disable wide band receiver while carrier reports are active will do
+ nothing.
+
+
+.. _lirc_dev_errors:
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.

+LIRC read fop
+*************
+
+The lircd userspace daemon reads raw IR data from the LIRC chardev. The
+exact format of the data depends on what modes a driver supports, and
+what mode has been selected. lircd obtains supported modes and sets the
+active mode via the ioctl interface, detailed at :ref:`lirc_ioctl`.
+The generally preferred mode is LIRC_MODE_MODE2, in which packets
+containing an int value describing an IR signal are read from the

+The data written to the chardev is a pulse/space sequence of integer

+The data must start and end with a pulse, therefore, the data must
+always include an uneven number of samples. The write function must
+block until the data has been transmitted by the hardware. If more data
+is provided than the hardware can send, the driver returns EINVAL.

+Introduction
+============
+
+Media devices increasingly handle multiple related functions. Many USB
+cameras include microphones, video capture hardware can also output
+video, or SoC camera interfaces also perform memory-to-memory operations
+similar to video codecs.
+
+Independent functions, even when implemented in the same hardware, can
+be modelled as separate devices. A USB camera with a microphone will be
+presented to userspace applications as V4L2 and ALSA capture devices.
+The devices' relationships (when using a webcam, end-users shouldn't
+have to manually select the associated USB microphone), while not made
+available directly to applications by the drivers, can usually be
+retrieved from sysfs.
+
+With more and more advanced SoC devices being introduced, the current
+approach will not scale. Device topologies are getting increasingly
+complex and can't always be represented by a tree structure. Hardware
+blocks are shared between different functions, creating dependencies
+between seemingly unrelated devices.
+
+Kernel abstraction APIs such as V4L2 and ALSA provide means for
+applications to access hardware parameters. As newer hardware expose an
+increasingly high number of those parameters, drivers need to guess what
+applications really require based on limited information, thereby
+implementing policies that belong to userspace.
+
+The media controller API aims at solving those problems.

+Discovering a device internal topology, and configuring it at runtime,
+is one of the goals of the media controller API. To achieve this,
+hardware devices and Linux Kernel interfaces are modelled as graph
+objects on an oriented graph. The object types that constitute the graph
+are:
+
+- An **entity** is a basic media hardware or software building block.
+ It can correspond to a large variety of logical blocks such as
+ physical hardware devices (CMOS sensor for instance), logical
+ hardware devices (a building block in a System-on-Chip image
+ processing pipeline), DMA channels or physical connectors.
+
+- An **interface** is a graph representation of a Linux Kernel
+ userspace API interface, like a device node or a sysfs file that
+ controls one or more entities in the graph.
+
+- A **pad** is a data connection endpoint through which an entity can
+ interact with other entities. Data (not restricted to video) produced
+ by an entity flows from the entity's output to one or more entity
+ inputs. Pads should not be confused with physical pins at chip
+ boundaries.
+
+- A **data link** is a point-to-point oriented connection between two
+ pads, either on the same entity or on different entities. Data flows
+ from a source pad to a sink pad.
+
+- An **interface link** is a point-to-point bidirectional control
+ connection between a Linux Kernel interface and an entity.m

+
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, void *argp )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ Media ioctl request code as defined in the media.h header file, for
+ example MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK.
+
+``argp``
+ Pointer to a request-specific structure.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The :c:func:`ioctl()` function manipulates media device parameters.
+The argument ``fd`` must be an open file descriptor.
+
+The ioctl ``request`` code specifies the media function to be called. It
+has encoded in it whether the argument is an input, output or read/write
+parameter, and the size of the argument ``argp`` in bytes.
+
+Macros and structures definitions specifying media ioctl requests and
+their parameters are located in the media.h header file. All media ioctl
+requests, their respective function and parameters are specified in
+:ref:`media-user-func`.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+Request-specific error codes are listed in the individual requests
+descriptions.
+
+When an ioctl that takes an output or read/write parameter fails, the
+parameter remains unmodified.

+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set

+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+ENOSPC
+ This is returned when either one or more of the num_entities,
+ num_interfaces, num_links or num_pads are non-zero and are
+ smaller than the actual number of elements inside the graph. This
+ may happen if the ``topology_version`` changed when compared to the
+ last time this ioctl was called. Userspace should usually free the
+ area for the pointers, zero the struct elements and call this ioctl
+ again.

+
+Modify the properties of a link
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct media_link_desc *argp )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <media-func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To change link properties applications fill a struct
+:ref:`media_link_desc <media-link-desc>` with link identification
+information (source and sink pad) and the new requested link flags. They
+then call the MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK ioctl with a pointer to that
+structure.
+
+The only configurable property is the ``ENABLED`` link flag to
+enable/disable a link. Links marked with the ``IMMUTABLE`` link flag can
+not be enabled or disabled.
+
+Link configuration has no side effect on other links. If an enabled link
+at the sink pad prevents the link from being enabled, the driver returns
+with an EBUSY error code.
+
+Only links marked with the ``DYNAMIC`` link flag can be enabled/disabled
+while streaming media data. Attempting to enable or disable a streaming
+non-dynamic link will return an EBUSY error code.
+
+If the specified link can't be found the driver returns with an EINVAL
+error code.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+EINVAL
+ The struct :ref:`media_link_desc <media-link-desc>` references a
+ non-existing link, or the link is immutable and an attempt to modify
+ its configuration was made.

+******************************
+Streaming I/O (Memory Mapping)
+******************************
+
+Input and output devices support this I/O method when the
+``V4L2_CAP_STREAMING`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl is set. There are two
+streaming methods, to determine if the memory mapping flavor is
+supported applications must call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl.
+
+Streaming is an I/O method where only pointers to buffers are exchanged
+between application and driver, the data itself is not copied. Memory
+mapping is primarily intended to map buffers in device memory into the
+application's address space. Device memory can be for example the video
+memory on a graphics card with a video capture add-on. However, being
+the most efficient I/O method available for a long time, many other
+drivers support streaming as well, allocating buffers in DMA-able main
+memory.
+
+A driver can support many sets of buffers. Each set is identified by a
+unique buffer type value. The sets are independent and each set can hold
+a different type of data. To access different sets at the same time
+different file descriptors must be used. [1]_
+
+To allocate device buffers applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl with the desired number
+of buffers and buffer type, for example ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE``.
+This ioctl can also be used to change the number of buffers or to free
+the allocated memory, provided none of the buffers are still mapped.
+
+Before applications can access the buffers they must map them into their
+address space with the :ref:`mmap() <func-mmap>` function. The
+location of the buffers in device memory can be determined with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` ioctl. In the single-planar
+API case, the ``m.offset`` and ``length`` returned in a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` are passed as sixth and second
+parameter to the :c:func:`mmap()` function. When using the
+multi-planar API, struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` contains an
+array of struct :ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` structures, each
+containing its own ``m.offset`` and ``length``. When using the
+multi-planar API, every plane of every buffer has to be mapped
+separately, so the number of calls to :ref:`mmap() <func-mmap>` should
+be equal to number of buffers times number of planes in each buffer. The
+offset and length values must not be modified. Remember, the buffers are
+allocated in physical memory, as opposed to virtual memory, which can be
+swapped out to disk. Applications should free the buffers as soon as
+possible with the :ref:`munmap() <func-munmap>` function.

+
+Conceptually streaming drivers maintain two buffer queues, an incoming
+and an outgoing queue. They separate the synchronous capture or output
+operation locked to a video clock from the application which is subject
+to random disk or network delays and preemption by other processes,
+thereby reducing the probability of data loss. The queues are organized
+as FIFOs, buffers will be output in the order enqueued in the incoming
+FIFO, and were captured in the order dequeued from the outgoing FIFO.
+
+The driver may require a minimum number of buffers enqueued at all times
+to function, apart of this no limit exists on the number of buffers
+applications can enqueue in advance, or dequeue and process. They can
+also enqueue in a different order than buffers have been dequeued, and
+the driver can *fill* enqueued *empty* buffers in any order. [2]_ The
+index number of a buffer (struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>`
+``index``) plays no role here, it only identifies the buffer.
+
+Initially all mapped buffers are in dequeued state, inaccessible by the
+driver. For capturing applications it is customary to first enqueue all
+mapped buffers, then to start capturing and enter the read loop. Here
+the application waits until a filled buffer can be dequeued, and
+re-enqueues the buffer when the data is no longer needed. Output
+applications fill and enqueue buffers, when enough buffers are stacked
+up the output is started with ``VIDIOC_STREAMON``. In the write loop,
+when the application runs out of free buffers, it must wait until an
+empty buffer can be dequeued and reused.
+
+To enqueue and dequeue a buffer applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. The status of a buffer being
+mapped, enqueued, full or empty can be determined at any time using the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` ioctl. Two methods exist to
+suspend execution of the application until one or more buffers can be
+dequeued. By default ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` blocks when no buffer is in the
+outgoing queue. When the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given to the
+:ref:`open() <func-open>` function, ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` returns
+immediately with an EAGAIN error code when no buffer is available. The
+:ref:`select() <func-select>` or :ref:`poll() <func-poll>` functions
+are always available.
+
+To start and stop capturing or output applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl. Note
+``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` removes all buffers from both queues as a side
+effect. Since there is no notion of doing anything "now" on a
+multitasking system, if an application needs to synchronize with another
+event it should examine the struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>`
+``timestamp`` of captured or outputted buffers.
+
+Drivers implementing memory mapping I/O must support the
+``VIDIOC_REQBUFS``, ``VIDIOC_QUERYBUF``, ``VIDIOC_QBUF``,
+``VIDIOC_DQBUF``, ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` and ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` ioctl,
+the :c:func:`mmap()`, :c:func:`munmap()`, :c:func:`select()` and
+:c:func:`poll()` function. [3]_
+
+[capture example]
+
+.. [1]
+ One could use one file descriptor and set the buffer type field
+ accordingly when calling :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` etc.,
+ but it makes the :c:func:`select()` function ambiguous. We also
+ like the clean approach of one file descriptor per logical stream.
+ Video overlay for example is also a logical stream, although the CPU
+ is not needed for continuous operation.
+
+.. [2]
+ Random enqueue order permits applications processing images out of
+ order (such as video codecs) to return buffers earlier, reducing the
+ probability of data loss. Random fill order allows drivers to reuse
+ buffers on a LIFO-basis, taking advantage of caches holding
+ scatter-gather lists and the like.
+
+.. [3]
+ At the driver level :c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` are
+ the same, and :c:func:`select()` is too important to be optional.
+ The rest should be evident.

+***************************
+Opening and Closing Devices
+***************************
+
+
+Device Naming
+=============
+
+V4L2 drivers are implemented as kernel modules, loaded manually by the
+system administrator or automatically when a device is first discovered.
+The driver modules plug into the "videodev" kernel module. It provides
+helper functions and a common application interface specified in this
+document.
+
+Each driver thus loaded registers one or more device nodes with major
+number 81 and a minor number between 0 and 255. Minor numbers are
+allocated dynamically unless the kernel is compiled with the kernel
+option CONFIG_VIDEO_FIXED_MINOR_RANGES. In that case minor numbers
+are allocated in ranges depending on the device node type (video, radio,
+etc.).
+
+Many drivers support "video_nr", "radio_nr" or "vbi_nr" module
+options to select specific video/radio/vbi node numbers. This allows the
+user to request that the device node is named e.g. /dev/video5 instead
+of leaving it to chance. When the driver supports multiple devices of
+the same type more than one device node number can be assigned,
+separated by commas:
+
+
+
+::
+
+ > modprobe mydriver video_nr=0,1 radio_nr=0,1
+In ``/etc/modules.conf`` this may be written as:
+
+
+
+::
+
+ options mydriver video_nr=0,1 radio_nr=0,1
+When no device node number is given as module option the driver supplies
+a default.
+
+Normally udev will create the device nodes in /dev automatically for
+you. If udev is not installed, then you need to enable the
+CONFIG_VIDEO_FIXED_MINOR_RANGES kernel option in order to be able to
+correctly relate a minor number to a device node number. I.e., you need
+to be certain that minor number 5 maps to device node name video5. With
+this kernel option different device types have different minor number
+ranges. These ranges are listed in :ref:`devices`.
+
+The creation of character special files (with mknod) is a privileged
+operation and devices cannot be opened by major and minor number. That
+means applications cannot *reliable* scan for loaded or installed
+drivers. The user must enter a device name, or the application can try
+the conventional device names.
+
+
+.. _related:
+
+Related Devices
+===============
+
+Devices can support several functions. For example video capturing, VBI
+capturing and radio support.
+
+The V4L2 API creates different nodes for each of these functions.
+
+The V4L2 API was designed with the idea that one device node could
+support all functions. However, in practice this never worked: this
+'feature' was never used by applications and many drivers did not
+support it and if they did it was certainly never tested. In addition,
+switching a device node between different functions only works when
+using the streaming I/O API, not with the read()/write() API.
+
+Today each device node supports just one function.
+
+Besides video input or output the hardware may also support audio
+sampling or playback. If so, these functions are implemented as ALSA PCM
+devices with optional ALSA audio mixer devices.
+
+One problem with all these devices is that the V4L2 API makes no
+provisions to find these related devices. Some really complex devices
+use the Media Controller (see :ref:`media_controller`) which can be
+used for this purpose. But most drivers do not use it, and while some
+code exists that uses sysfs to discover related devices (see
+libmedia_dev in the
+`v4l-utils <http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/v4l-utils.git/>`__ git
+repository), there is no library yet that can provide a single API
+towards both Media Controller-based devices and devices that do not use
+the Media Controller. If you want to work on this please write to the
+linux-media mailing list:
+`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__.
+
+
+Multiple Opens
+==============
+
+V4L2 devices can be opened more than once. [1]_ When this is supported
+by the driver, users can for example start a "panel" application to
+change controls like brightness or audio volume, while another
+application captures video and audio. In other words, panel applications
+are comparable to an ALSA audio mixer application. Just opening a V4L2
+device should not change the state of the device. [2]_
+
+Once an application has allocated the memory buffers needed for
+streaming data (by calling the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>`
+or :ref:`VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS <vidioc-create-bufs>` ioctls, or
+implicitly by calling the :ref:`read() <func-read>` or
+:ref:`write() <func-write>` functions) that application (filehandle)
+becomes the owner of the device. It is no longer allowed to make changes
+that would affect the buffer sizes (e.g. by calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl) and other applications are
+no longer allowed to allocate buffers or start or stop streaming. The
+EBUSY error code will be returned instead.
+
+Merely opening a V4L2 device does not grant exclusive access. [3]_
+Initiating data exchange however assigns the right to read or write the
+requested type of data, and to change related properties, to this file
+descriptor. Applications can request additional access privileges using
+the priority mechanism described in :ref:`app-pri`.
+
+
+Shared Data Streams
+===================
+
+V4L2 drivers should not support multiple applications reading or writing
+the same data stream on a device by copying buffers, time multiplexing
+or similar means. This is better handled by a proxy application in user
+space.
+
+
+Functions
+=========
+
+To open and close V4L2 devices applications use the
+:ref:`open() <func-open>` and :ref:`close() <func-close>` function,
+respectively. Devices are programmed using the
+:ref:`ioctl() <func-ioctl>` function as explained in the following
+sections.
+
+.. [1]
+ There are still some old and obscure drivers that have not been
+ updated to allow for multiple opens. This implies that for such
+ drivers :ref:`open() <func-open>` can return an EBUSY error code
+ when the device is already in use.
+
+.. [2]
+ Unfortunately, opening a radio device often switches the state of the
+ device to radio mode in many drivers. This behavior should be fixed
+ eventually as it violates the V4L2 specification.
+
+.. [3]
+ Drivers could recognize the ``O_EXCL`` open flag. Presently this is
+ not required, so applications cannot know if it really works.

+
+ Both applications and drivers can set this field to request

+
+ When the image format is planar the ``bytesperline`` value applies
+ to the first plane and is divided by the same factor as the

+ have been correctly initialized. When set to any other value it
+ indicates that the extended fields contain undefined values.
+
+ Applications that wish to use the pixel format extended fields
+ must first ensure that the feature is supported by querying the
+ device for the :ref:`V4L2_CAP_EXT_PIX_FORMAT <querycap>`
+ capability. If the capability isn't set the pixel format extended
+ fields are not supported and using the extended fields will lead
+ to undefined results.
+
+ To use the extended fields, applications must set the ``priv``

+ :c:type:`struct v4l2_format` ``raw_data`` field.
+
+ When the ``priv`` field isn't set to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_PRIV_MAGIC``

+**********************
+Standard Image Formats
+**********************
+
+In order to exchange images between drivers and applications, it is
+necessary to have standard image data formats which both sides will
+interpret the same way. V4L2 includes several such formats, and this
+section is intended to be an unambiguous specification of the standard
+image data formats in V4L2.
+
+V4L2 drivers are not limited to these formats, however. Driver-specific
+formats are possible. In that case the application may depend on a codec
+to convert images to one of the standard formats when needed. But the
+data can still be stored and retrieved in the proprietary format. For
+example, a device may support a proprietary compressed format.
+Applications can still capture and save the data in the compressed
+format, saving much disk space, and later use a codec to convert the
+images to the X Windows screen format when the video is to be displayed.
+
+Even so, ultimately, some standard formats are needed, so the V4L2
+specification would not be complete without well-defined standard
+formats.
+
+The V4L2 standard formats are mainly uncompressed formats. The pixels
+are always arranged in memory from left to right, and from top to
+bottom. The first byte of data in the image buffer is always for the
+leftmost pixel of the topmost row. Following that is the pixel
+immediately to its right, and so on until the end of the top row of
+pixels. Following the rightmost pixel of the row there may be zero or
+more bytes of padding to guarantee that each row of pixel data has a
+certain alignment. Following the pad bytes, if any, is data for the
+leftmost pixel of the second row from the top, and so on. The last row
+has just as many pad bytes after it as the other rows.
+
+In V4L2 each format has an identifier which looks like ``PIX_FMT_XXX``,
+defined in the :ref:`videodev2.h <videodev>` header file. These
+identifiers represent
+:ref:`four character (FourCC) codes <v4l2-fourcc>` which are also
+listed below, however they are not the same as those used in the Windows
+world.
+
+For some formats, data is stored in separate, discontiguous memory
+buffers. Those formats are identified by a separate set of FourCC codes
+and are referred to as "multi-planar formats". For example, a YUV422
+frame is normally stored in one memory buffer, but it can also be placed
+in two or three separate buffers, with Y component in one buffer and
+CbCr components in another in the 2-planar version or with each
+component in its own buffer in the 3-planar case. Those sub-buffers are
+referred to as "planes".

+****************************
+Defining Colorspaces in V4L2
+****************************
+
+In V4L2 colorspaces are defined by four values. The first is the
+colorspace identifier (enum :ref:`v4l2_colorspace <v4l2-colorspace>`)
+which defines the chromaticities, the default transfer function, the
+default Y'CbCr encoding and the default quantization method. The second
+is the transfer function identifier (enum
+:ref:`v4l2_xfer_func <v4l2-xfer-func>`) to specify non-standard
+transfer functions. The third is the Y'CbCr encoding identifier (enum
+:ref:`v4l2_ycbcr_encoding <v4l2-ycbcr-encoding>`) to specify
+non-standard Y'CbCr encodings and the fourth is the quantization
+identifier (enum :ref:`v4l2_quantization <v4l2-quantization>`) to
+specify non-standard quantization methods. Most of the time only the
+colorspace field of struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>`
+or struct :ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>`
+needs to be filled in. Note that the default R'G'B' quantization is full
+range for all colorspaces except for BT.2020 which uses limited range
+R'G'B' quantization.

+
+Colorspace SMPTE 170M (V4L2_COLORSPACE_SMPTE170M)
+=================================================
+
+The :ref:`smpte170m` standard defines the colorspace used by NTSC and
+PAL and by SDTV in general. The default transfer function is
+``V4L2_XFER_FUNC_709``. The default Y'CbCr encoding is
+``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601``. The default Y'CbCr quantization is limited

+
+
+The red, green and blue chromaticities are also often referred to as the
+SMPTE C set, so this colorspace is sometimes called SMPTE C as well.
+
+The transfer function defined for SMPTE 170M is the same as the one
+defined in Rec. 709.
+ L' = -1.099(-L):sup:`0.45` + 0.099 for L ≤ -0.018
+
+ L' = 4.5L for -0.018 < L < 0.018
+
+ L' = 1.099L\ :sup:`0.45` - 0.099 for L ≥ 0.018
+
+Inverse Transfer function:
+ L = -((L' - 0.099) / -1.099):sup:`1/0.45` for L' ≤ -0.081
+
+ L = L' / 4.5 for -0.081 < L' < 0.081
+
+ L = ((L' + 0.099) / 1.099)\ :sup:`1/0.45` for L' ≥ 0.081
+
+The luminance (Y') and color difference (Cb and Cr) are obtained with
+the following ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601`` encoding:
+ Y' = 0.299R' + 0.587G' + 0.114B'
+
+ Cb = -0.169R' - 0.331G' + 0.5B'
+
+ Cr = 0.5R' - 0.419G' - 0.081B'
+
+Y' is clamped to the range [0…1] and Cb and Cr are clamped to the range
+[-0.5…0.5]. This conversion to Y'CbCr is identical to the one defined in
+the :ref:`itu601` standard and this colorspace is sometimes called
+BT.601 as well, even though BT.601 does not mention any color primaries.
+
+The default quantization is limited range, but full range is possible
+although rarely seen.

+
+Colorspace Rec. 709 (V4L2_COLORSPACE_REC709)
+============================================
+
+The :ref:`itu709` standard defines the colorspace used by HDTV in
+general. The default transfer function is ``V4L2_XFER_FUNC_709``. The
+default Y'CbCr encoding is ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_709``. The default Y'CbCr
+quantization is limited range. The chromaticities of the primary colors

+Transfer function. Normally L is in the range [0…1], but for the
+extended gamut xvYCC encoding values outside that range are allowed.
+ L' = -1.099(-L):sup:`0.45` + 0.099 for L ≤ -0.018
+
+ L' = 4.5L for -0.018 < L < 0.018
+
+ L' = 1.099L\ :sup:`0.45` - 0.099 for L ≥ 0.018
+
+Inverse Transfer function:
+ L = -((L' - 0.099) / -1.099):sup:`1/0.45` for L' ≤ -0.081
+
+ L = L' / 4.5 for -0.081 < L' < 0.081
+
+ L = ((L' + 0.099) / 1.099)\ :sup:`1/0.45` for L' ≥ 0.081
+
+The luminance (Y') and color difference (Cb and Cr) are obtained with
+the following ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_709`` encoding:
+ Y' = 0.2126R' + 0.7152G' + 0.0722B'
+
+ Cb = -0.1146R' - 0.3854G' + 0.5B'
+
+ Cr = 0.5R' - 0.4542G' - 0.0458B'
+
+Y' is clamped to the range [0…1] and Cb and Cr are clamped to the range
+[-0.5…0.5].
+
+The default quantization is limited range, but full range is possible
+although rarely seen.
+
+The ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_709`` encoding described above is the default for
+this colorspace, but it can be overridden with ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601``,
+in which case the BT.601 Y'CbCr encoding is used.
+
+Two additional extended gamut Y'CbCr encodings are also possible with
+this colorspace:
+
+The xvYCC 709 encoding (``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV709``, :ref:`xvycc`) is
+similar to the Rec. 709 encoding, but it allows for R', G' and B' values
+that are outside the range [0…1]. The resulting Y', Cb and Cr values are
+scaled and offset:
+ Y' = (219 / 256) * (0.2126R' + 0.7152G' + 0.0722B') + (16 / 256)
+
+ Cb = (224 / 256) * (-0.1146R' - 0.3854G' + 0.5B')
+
+ Cr = (224 / 256) * (0.5R' - 0.4542G' - 0.0458B')
+
+The xvYCC 601 encoding (``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV601``, :ref:`xvycc`) is
+similar to the BT.601 encoding, but it allows for R', G' and B' values
+that are outside the range [0…1]. The resulting Y', Cb and Cr values are
+scaled and offset:
+ Y' = (219 / 256) * (0.299R' + 0.587G' + 0.114B') + (16 / 256)
+
+ Cb = (224 / 256) * (-0.169R' - 0.331G' + 0.5B')
+
+ Cr = (224 / 256) * (0.5R' - 0.419G' - 0.081B')
+
+Y' is clamped to the range [0…1] and Cb and Cr are clamped to the range
+[-0.5…0.5]. The non-standard xvYCC 709 or xvYCC 601 encodings can be
+used by selecting ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV709`` or ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV601``.
+The xvYCC encodings always use full range quantization.
+
+
+.. _col-srgb:
+
+Colorspace sRGB (V4L2_COLORSPACE_SRGB)
+======================================
+
+The :ref:`srgb` standard defines the colorspace used by most webcams
+and computer graphics. The default transfer function is
+``V4L2_XFER_FUNC_SRGB``. The default Y'CbCr encoding is
+``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_SYCC``. The default Y'CbCr quantization is full range.
+The chromaticities of the primary colors and the white reference are:

+Y'CbCr conversion.

+
+ L' = 12.92L for -0.0031308 ≤ L ≤ 0.0031308
+
+ L' = 1.055L\ :sup:`1/2.4` - 0.055 for 0.0031308 < L ≤ 1
+
+Inverse Transfer function:
+ L = -((-L' + 0.055) / 1.055)\ :sup:`2.4` for L' < -0.04045
+
+ L = L' / 12.92 for -0.04045 ≤ L' ≤ 0.04045
+
+ L = ((L' + 0.055) / 1.055)\ :sup:`2.4` for L' > 0.04045
+
+The luminance (Y') and color difference (Cb and Cr) are obtained with
+the following ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_SYCC`` encoding as defined by
+:ref:`sycc`:
+ Y' = 0.2990R' + 0.5870G' + 0.1140B'
+
+ Cb = -0.1687R' - 0.3313G' + 0.5B'
+
+ Cr = 0.5R' - 0.4187G' - 0.0813B'
+
+Y' is clamped to the range [0…1] and Cb and Cr are clamped to the range
+[-0.5…0.5]. The ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_SYCC`` quantization is always full
+range. Although this Y'CbCr encoding looks very similar to the
+``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV601`` encoding, it is not. The
+``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_XV601`` scales and offsets the Y'CbCr values before
+quantization, but this encoding does not do that.

+Colorspace Adobe RGB (V4L2_COLORSPACE_ADOBERGB)
+===============================================
+
+The :ref:`adobergb` standard defines the colorspace used by computer

+:ref:`oprgb` standard. The default transfer function is
+``V4L2_XFER_FUNC_ADOBERGB``. The default Y'CbCr encoding is

+with full range quantization where Y' is scaled to [0…255] and Cb/Cr are
+scaled to [-128…128] and then clipped to [-128…127].
+
+Note that the JPEG standard does not actually store colorspace
+information. So if something other than sRGB is used, then the driver
+will have to set that information explicitly. Effectively
+``V4L2_COLORSPACE_JPEG`` can be considered to be an abbreviation for
+``V4L2_COLORSPACE_SRGB``, ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601`` and

+
+M420 is a YUV format with ½ horizontal and vertical chroma subsampling
+(YUV 4:2:0). Pixels are organized as interleaved luma and chroma planes.

+Formats with ½ horizontal and vertical chroma resolution, also known as
+YUV 4:2:0. One luminance and one chrominance plane with alternating
+chroma samples as opposed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These are two-plane versions of the YUV 4:2:0 format. The three
+components are separated into two sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
+first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. For ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12``, a
+combined CbCr plane immediately follows the Y plane in memory. The CbCr
+plane is the same width, in bytes, as the Y plane (and of the image),
+but is half as tall in pixels. Each CbCr pair belongs to four pixels.
+For example, Cb\ :sub:`0`/Cr:sub:`0` belongs to Y'\ :sub:`00`,
+Y'\ :sub:`01`, Y'\ :sub:`10`, Y'\ :sub:`11`. ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV21`` is
+the same except the Cb and Cr bytes are swapped, the CrCb plane starts
+with a Cr byte.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the CbCr plane has as
+many pad bytes after its rows.
+

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This is a multi-planar, two-plane version of the YUV 4:2:0 format. The
+three components are separated into two sub-images or planes.
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M`` differs from ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12`` in that the
+two planes are non-contiguous in memory, i.e. the chroma plane do not
+necessarily immediately follows the luma plane. The luminance data
+occupies the first plane. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. In the
+second plane there is a chrominance data with alternating chroma
+samples. The CbCr plane is the same width, in bytes, as the Y plane (and
+of the image), but is half as tall in pixels. Each CbCr pair belongs to
+four pixels. For example, Cb\ :sub:`0`/Cr:sub:`0` belongs to
+Y'\ :sub:`00`, Y'\ :sub:`01`, Y'\ :sub:`10`, Y'\ :sub:`11`.
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12MT_16X16`` is the tiled version of
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M`` with 16x16 macroblock tiles. Here pixels are
+arranged in 16x16 2D tiles and tiles are arranged in linear order in
+memory. ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV21M`` is the same as ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M``
+except the Cb and Cr bytes are swapped, the CrCb plane starts with a Cr
+byte.
+
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12M`` is intended to be used only in drivers and
+applications that support the multi-planar API, described in

+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the CbCr plane has as

+Formats with ½ horizontal and vertical chroma resolution. This format
+has two planes - one for luminance and one for chrominance. Chroma
+samples are interleaved. The difference to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12`` is the
+memory layout. Pixels are grouped in macroblocks of 64x32 size. The
+order of macroblocks in memory is also not standard.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This is the two-plane versions of the YUV 4:2:0 format where data is
+grouped into 64x32 macroblocks. The three components are separated into
+two sub-images or planes. The Y plane has one byte per pixel and pixels
+are grouped into 64x32 macroblocks. The CbCr plane has the same width,
+in bytes, as the Y plane (and the image), but is half as tall in pixels.
+The chroma plane is also grouped into 64x32 macroblocks.
+
+Width of the buffer has to be aligned to the multiple of 128, and height
+alignment is 32. Every four adjacent buffers - two horizontally and two
+vertically are grouped together and are located in memory in Z or
+flipped Z order.
+
+Layout of macroblocks in memory is presented in the following figure.

+
+ V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV12MT macroblock Z shape memory layout
+
+The requirement that width is multiple of 128 is implemented because,
+the Z shape cannot be cut in half horizontally. In case the vertical
+resolution of macroblocks is odd then the last row of macroblocks is
+arranged in a linear order.
+
+In case of chroma the layout is identical. Cb and Cr samples are
+interleaved. Height of the buffer is aligned to 32.

+V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV42
+Formats with full horizontal and vertical chroma resolutions, also known
+as YUV 4:4:4. One luminance and one chrominance plane with alternating
+chroma samples as opposed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU420``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These are two-plane versions of the YUV 4:4:4 format. The three
+components are separated into two sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
+first, with each Y sample stored in one byte per pixel. For
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV24``, a combined CbCr plane immediately follows the Y
+plane in memory. The CbCr plane has the same width and height, in
+pixels, as the Y plane (and the image). Each line contains one CbCr pair
+per pixel, with each Cb and Cr sample stored in one byte.
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_NV42`` is the same except that the Cb and Cr samples are
+swapped, the CrCb plane starts with a Cr sample.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the CbCr plane has
+twice as many pad bytes after its rows.
+
+**Byte Order..**
+
+Each cell is one byte.

+Packed RGB formats
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These formats are designed to match the pixel formats of typical PC
+graphics frame buffers. They occupy 8, 16, 24 or 32 bits per pixel.
+These are all packed-pixel formats, meaning all the data for a pixel lie
+next to each other in memory.

+Bit 7 is the most significant bit.
+
+The usage and value of the alpha bits (a) in the ARGB and ABGR formats
+(collectively referred to as alpha formats) depend on the device type
+and hardware operation. :ref:`Capture <capture>` devices (including
+capture queues of mem-to-mem devices) fill the alpha component in
+memory. When the device outputs an alpha channel the alpha component
+will have a meaningful value. Otherwise, when the device doesn't output
+an alpha channel but can set the alpha bit to a user-configurable value,
+the :ref:`V4L2_CID_ALPHA_COMPONENT <v4l2-alpha-component>` control
+is used to specify that alpha value, and the alpha component of all
+pixels will be set to the value specified by that control. Otherwise a
+corresponding format without an alpha component (XRGB or XBGR) must be
+used instead of an alpha format.
+
+:ref:`Output <output>` devices (including output queues of mem-to-mem
+devices and :ref:`video output overlay <osd>` devices) read the alpha
+component from memory. When the device processes the alpha channel the
+alpha component must be filled with meaningful values by applications.
+Otherwise a corresponding format without an alpha component (XRGB or
+XBGR) must be used instead of an alpha format.
+
+The XRGB and XBGR formats contain undefined bits (-). Applications,
+devices and drivers must ignore those bits, for both
+:ref:`capture <capture>` and :ref:`output <output>` devices.

+
+ - Two-planar format used by Samsung S5C73MX cameras. The first plane
+ contains interleaved JPEG and UYVY image data, followed by meta
+ data in form of an array of offsets to the UYVY data blocks. The
+ actual pointer array follows immediately the interleaved JPEG/UYVY
+ data, the number of entries in this array equals the height of the
+ UYVY image. Each entry is a 4-byte unsigned integer in big endian
+ order and it's an offset to a single pixel line of the UYVY image.
+ The first plane can start either with JPEG or UYVY data chunk. The
+ size of a single UYVY block equals the UYVY image's width
+ multiplied by 2. The size of a JPEG chunk depends on the image and
+ can vary with each line.
+
+ The second plane, at an offset of 4084 bytes, contains a 4-byte
+ offset to the pointer array in the first plane. This offset is
+ followed by a 4-byte value indicating size of the pointer array.
+ All numbers in the second plane are also in big endian order.
+ Remaining data in the second plane is undefined. The information
+ in the second plane allows to easily find location of the pointer
+ array, which can be different for each frame. The size of the
+ pointer array is constant for given UYVY image height.
+
+ In order to extract UYVY and JPEG frames an application can
+ initially set a data pointer to the start of first plane and then
+ add an offset from the first entry of the pointers table. Such a
+ pointer indicates start of an UYVY image pixel line. Whole UYVY
+ line can be copied to a separate buffer. These steps should be
+ repeated for each line, i.e. the number of entries in the pointer
+ array. Anything what's in between the UYVY lines is JPEG data and
+ should be concatenated to form the JPEG stream.

+10-bit Bayer formats expanded to 16 bits
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These four pixel formats are raw sRGB / Bayer formats with 10 bits per
+colour. Each colour component is stored in a 16-bit word, with 6 unused
+high bits filled with zeros. Each n-pixel row contains n/2 green samples
+and n/2 blue or red samples, with alternating red and blue rows. Bytes
+are stored in memory in little endian order. They are conventionally
+described as GRGR... BGBG..., RGRG... GBGB..., etc. Below is an example
+of one of these formats
+
+**Byte Order..**
+
+Each cell is one byte, high 6 bits in high bytes are 0.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These four pixel formats are packed raw sRGB / Bayer formats with 10
+bits per colour. Every four consecutive colour components are packed

+Description
+===========
+
+This is commonly the native format of digital cameras, reflecting the
+arrangement of sensors on the CCD device. Only one red, green or blue
+value is given for each pixel. Missing components must be interpolated
+from neighbouring pixels. From left to right the first row consists of a
+red and green value, the second row of a green and blue value. This
+scheme repeats to the right and down for every two columns and rows.
+
+**Byte Order..**

+V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV410
+Planar formats with ¼ horizontal and vertical chroma resolution, also
+known as YUV 4:1:0
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These are planar formats, as opposed to a packed format. The three
+components are separated into three sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
+first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. For ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU410``,
+the Cr plane immediately follows the Y plane in memory. The Cr plane is
+¼ the width and ¼ the height of the Y plane (and of the image). Each Cr
+belongs to 16 pixels, a four-by-four square of the image. Following the
+Cr plane is the Cb plane, just like the Cr plane.
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV410`` is the same, except the Cb plane comes first,
+then the Cr plane.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the Cr and Cb planes
+have ¼ as many pad bytes after their rows. In other words, four Cx rows
+(including padding) are exactly as long as one Y row (including
+padding).
+
+**Byte Order..**
+
+Each cell is one byte.

+Format with ¼ horizontal chroma resolution, also known as YUV 4:1:1.
+Planar layout as opposed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_Y41P``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This format is not commonly used. This is a planar format similar to the
+4:2:2 planar format except with half as many chroma. The three
+components are separated into three sub-images or planes. The Y plane is
+first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. The Cb plane immediately
+follows the Y plane in memory. The Cb plane is ¼ the width of the Y
+plane (and of the image). Each Cb belongs to 4 pixels all on the same
+row. For example, Cb\ :sub:`0` belongs to Y'\ :sub:`00`, Y'\ :sub:`01`,
+Y'\ :sub:`02` and Y'\ :sub:`03`. Following the Cb plane is the Cr plane,
+just like the Cb plane.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the Cr and Cb planes
+have ¼ as many pad bytes after their rows. In other words, four C x rows
+(including padding) is exactly as long as one Y row (including padding).

+Format with ½ horizontal chroma resolution, also known as YUV 4:2:2.
+Planar layout as opposed to ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUYV``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This format is not commonly used. This is a planar version of the YUYV
+format. The three components are separated into three sub-images or
+planes. The Y plane is first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. The Cb
+plane immediately follows the Y plane in memory. The Cb plane is half
+the width of the Y plane (and of the image). Each Cb belongs to two
+pixels. For example, Cb\ :sub:`0` belongs to Y'\ :sub:`00`,
+Y'\ :sub:`01`. Following the Cb plane is the Cr plane, just like the Cb
+plane.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the Cr and Cb planes
+have half as many pad bytes after their rows. In other words, two Cx
+rows (including padding) is exactly as long as one Y row (including
+padding).
+
+**Byte Order..**

+V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU444M
+Planar formats with full horizontal resolution, also known as YUV and
+YVU 4:4:4
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This is a multi-planar format, as opposed to a packed format. The three
+components are separated into three sub-images or planes.
+
+The Y plane is first. The Y plane has one byte per pixel. For
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV444M`` the Cb data constitutes the second plane which
+is the same width and height as the Y plane (and as the image). The Cr
+data, just like the Cb plane, is in the third plane.
+
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YVU444M`` is the same except the Cr data is stored in the
+second plane and the Cb data in the third plane.
+
+If the Y plane has pad bytes after each row, then the Cb and Cr planes
+have the same number of pad bytes after their rows.
+
+``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV444M`` and ``V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUV444M`` are intended to be
+used only in drivers and applications that support the multi-planar API,
+described in :ref:`planar-apis`.

+Image Formats

+The V4L2 API was primarily designed for devices exchanging image data
+with applications. The :c:type:`struct v4l2_pix_format` and
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_pix_format_mplane` structures define the
+format and layout of an image in memory. The former is used with the
+single-planar API, while the latter is used with the multi-planar
+version (see :ref:`planar-apis`). Image formats are negotiated with
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctl. (The explanations here
+focus on video capturing and output, for overlay frame buffer formats
+see also :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FBUF <vidioc-g-fbuf>`.)

+
+*****************************
+Single- and multi-planar APIs
+*****************************
+
+Some devices require data for each input or output video frame to be
+placed in discontiguous memory buffers. In such cases, one video frame
+has to be addressed using more than one memory address, i.e. one pointer
+per "plane". A plane is a sub-buffer of the current frame. For examples
+of such formats see :ref:`pixfmt`.
+
+Initially, V4L2 API did not support multi-planar buffers and a set of
+extensions has been introduced to handle them. Those extensions
+constitute what is being referred to as the "multi-planar API".
+
+Some of the V4L2 API calls and structures are interpreted differently,
+depending on whether single- or multi-planar API is being used. An
+application can choose whether to use one or the other by passing a
+corresponding buffer type to its ioctl calls. Multi-planar versions of
+buffer types are suffixed with an `_MPLANE' string. For a list of
+available multi-planar buffer types see enum
+:ref:`v4l2_buf_type <v4l2-buf-type>`.
+
+
+Multi-planar formats
+====================
+
+Multi-planar API introduces new multi-planar formats. Those formats use
+a separate set of FourCC codes. It is important to distinguish between
+the multi-planar API and a multi-planar format. Multi-planar API calls
+can handle all single-planar formats as well (as long as they are passed
+in multi-planar API structures), while the single-planar API cannot
+handle multi-planar formats.
+
+
+Calls that distinguish between single and multi-planar APIs
+===========================================================
+
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>`
+ Two additional multi-planar capabilities are added. They can be set
+ together with non-multi-planar ones for devices that handle both
+ single- and multi-planar formats.
+
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`
+ New structures for describing multi-planar formats are added: struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` and
+ struct :ref:`v4l2_plane_pix_format <v4l2-plane-pix-format>`.
+ Drivers may define new multi-planar formats, which have distinct
+ FourCC codes from the existing single-planar ones.
+
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>`
+ A new struct :ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` structure for
+ describing planes is added. Arrays of this structure are passed in
+ the new ``m.planes`` field of struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>`.
+
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>`
+ Will allocate multi-planar buffers as requested.

+*********************
+Querying Capabilities
+*********************
+
+Because V4L2 covers a wide variety of devices not all aspects of the API
+are equally applicable to all types of devices. Furthermore devices of
+the same type have different capabilities and this specification permits
+the omission of a few complicated and less important parts of the API.
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl is available to
+check if the kernel device is compatible with this specification, and to
+query the :ref:`functions <devices>` and :ref:`I/O methods <io>`
+supported by the device.
+
+Starting with kernel version 3.1, VIDIOC-QUERYCAP will return the V4L2
+API version used by the driver, with generally matches the Kernel
+version. There's no need of using
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` to check if a specific ioctl
+is supported, the V4L2 core now returns ENOTTY if a driver doesn't
+provide support for an ioctl.
+
+Other features can be queried by calling the respective ioctl, for
+example :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` to learn about the
+number, types and names of video connectors on the device. Although
+abstraction is a major objective of this API, the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl also allows driver
+specific applications to reliably identify the driver.
+
+All V4L2 drivers must support ``VIDIOC_QUERYCAP``. Applications should
+always call this ioctl after opening the device.

+Input and output devices support the :c:func:`read()` and
+:c:func:`write()` function, respectively, when the
+``V4L2_CAP_READWRITE`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl is set.
+
+Drivers may need the CPU to copy the data, but they may also support DMA
+to or from user memory, so this I/O method is not necessarily less
+efficient than other methods merely exchanging buffer pointers. It is
+considered inferior though because no meta-information like frame
+counters or timestamps are passed. This information is necessary to
+recognize frame dropping and to synchronize with other data streams.
+However this is also the simplest I/O method, requiring little or no
+setup to exchange data. It permits command line stunts like this (the
+vidctrl tool is fictitious):
+
+
+
+::
+
+ > vidctrl /dev/video --input=0 --format=YUYV --size=352x288
+ > dd if=/dev/video of=myimage.422 bs=202752 count=1
+To read from the device applications use the :ref:`read() <func-read>`
+function, to write the :ref:`write() <func-write>` function. Drivers
+must implement one I/O method if they exchange data with applications,
+but it need not be this. [1]_ When reading or writing is supported, the
+driver must also support the :ref:`select() <func-select>` and
+:ref:`poll() <func-poll>` function. [2]_
+
+.. [1]
+ It would be desirable if applications could depend on drivers
+ supporting all I/O interfaces, but as much as the complex memory
+ mapping I/O can be inadequate for some devices we have no reason to
+ require this interface, which is most useful for simple applications
+ capturing still images.
+
+.. [2]
+ At the driver level :c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` are
+ the same, and :c:func:`select()` is too important to be optional.

+Introduction
+************
+
+Some video capture devices can sample a subsection of a picture and
+shrink or enlarge it to an image of arbitrary size. Next, the devices
+can insert the image into larger one. Some video output devices can crop
+part of an input image, scale it up or down and insert it at an
+arbitrary scan line and horizontal offset into a video signal. We call
+these abilities cropping, scaling and composing.
+
+On a video *capture* device the source is a video signal, and the
+cropping target determine the area actually sampled. The sink is an
+image stored in a memory buffer. The composing area specifies which part
+of the buffer is actually written to by the hardware.
+
+On a video *output* device the source is an image in a memory buffer,
+and the cropping target is a part of an image to be shown on a display.
+The sink is the display or the graphics screen. The application may
+select the part of display where the image should be displayed. The size
+and position of such a window is controlled by the compose target.
+
+Rectangles for all cropping and composing targets are defined even if
+the device does supports neither cropping nor composing. Their size and
+position will be fixed in such a case. If the device does not support
+scaling then the cropping and composing rectangles have the same size.

+
+*************
+Configuration
+*************
+
+Applications can use the :ref:`selection API <vidioc-g-selection>` to
+select an area in a video signal or a buffer, and to query for default
+settings and hardware limits.
+
+Video hardware can have various cropping, composing and scaling
+limitations. It may only scale up or down, support only discrete scaling
+factors, or have different scaling abilities in the horizontal and
+vertical directions. Also it may not support scaling at all. At the same
+time the cropping/composing rectangles may have to be aligned, and both
+the source and the sink may have arbitrary upper and lower size limits.
+Therefore, as usual, drivers are expected to adjust the requested
+parameters and return the actual values selected. An application can
+control the rounding behaviour using
+:ref:`constraint flags <v4l2-selection-flags>`.
+
+
+Configuration of video capture
+==============================
+
+See figure :ref:`sel-targets-capture` for examples of the selection
+targets available for a video capture device. It is recommended to
+configure the cropping targets before to the composing targets.
+
+The range of coordinates of the top left corner, width and height of
+areas that can be sampled is given by the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS``
+target. It is recommended for the driver developers to put the top/left
+corner at position ``(0,0)``. The rectangle's coordinates are expressed
+in pixels.
+
+The top left corner, width and height of the source rectangle, that is
+the area actually sampled, is given by the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` target.
+It uses the same coordinate system as ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS``. The
+active cropping area must lie completely inside the capture boundaries.
+The driver may further adjust the requested size and/or position
+according to hardware limitations.
+
+Each capture device has a default source rectangle, given by the
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_DEFAULT`` target. This rectangle shall over what the
+driver writer considers the complete picture. Drivers shall set the
+active crop rectangle to the default when the driver is first loaded,
+but not later.
+
+The composing targets refer to a memory buffer. The limits of composing
+coordinates are obtained using ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_BOUNDS``. All
+coordinates are expressed in pixels. The rectangle's top/left corner
+must be located at position ``(0,0)``. The width and height are equal to
+the image size set by ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``.
+
+The part of a buffer into which the image is inserted by the hardware is
+controlled by the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` target. The rectangle's
+coordinates are also expressed in the same coordinate system as the
+bounds rectangle. The composing rectangle must lie completely inside
+bounds rectangle. The driver must adjust the composing rectangle to fit
+to the bounding limits. Moreover, the driver can perform other
+adjustments according to hardware limitations. The application can
+control rounding behaviour using
+:ref:`constraint flags <v4l2-selection-flags>`.
+
+For capture devices the default composing rectangle is queried using
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_DEFAULT``. It is usually equal to the bounding
+rectangle.
+
+The part of a buffer that is modified by the hardware is given by
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_PADDED``. It contains all pixels defined using
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` plus all padding data modified by hardware
+during insertion process. All pixels outside this rectangle *must not*
+be changed by the hardware. The content of pixels that lie inside the
+padded area but outside active area is undefined. The application can
+use the padded and active rectangles to detect where the rubbish pixels
+are located and remove them if needed.
+
+
+Configuration of video output
+=============================
+
+For output devices targets and ioctls are used similarly to the video
+capture case. The *composing* rectangle refers to the insertion of an
+image into a video signal. The cropping rectangles refer to a memory
+buffer. It is recommended to configure the composing targets before to
+the cropping targets.
+
+The cropping targets refer to the memory buffer that contains an image
+to be inserted into a video signal or graphical screen. The limits of
+cropping coordinates are obtained using ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_BOUNDS``.
+All coordinates are expressed in pixels. The top/left corner is always
+point ``(0,0)``. The width and height is equal to the image size
+specified using ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl.
+
+The top left corner, width and height of the source rectangle, that is
+the area from which image date are processed by the hardware, is given
+by the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP``. Its coordinates are expressed in in the
+same coordinate system as the bounds rectangle. The active cropping area
+must lie completely inside the crop boundaries and the driver may
+further adjust the requested size and/or position according to hardware
+limitations.
+
+For output devices the default cropping rectangle is queried using
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_DEFAULT``. It is usually equal to the bounding
+rectangle.
+
+The part of a video signal or graphics display where the image is
+inserted by the hardware is controlled by ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE``
+target. The rectangle's coordinates are expressed in pixels. The
+composing rectangle must lie completely inside the bounds rectangle. The
+driver must adjust the area to fit to the bounding limits. Moreover, the
+driver can perform other adjustments according to hardware limitations.
+
+The device has a default composing rectangle, given by the
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_DEFAULT`` target. This rectangle shall cover what
+the driver writer considers the complete picture. It is recommended for
+the driver developers to put the top/left corner at position ``(0,0)``.
+Drivers shall set the active composing rectangle to the default one when
+the driver is first loaded.
+
+The devices may introduce additional content to video signal other than
+an image from memory buffers. It includes borders around an image.
+However, such a padded area is driver-dependent feature not covered by
+this document. Driver developers are encouraged to keep padded rectangle
+equal to active one. The padded target is accessed by the
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_PADDED`` identifier. It must contain all pixels
+from the ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` target.
+
+
+Scaling control
+===============
+
+An application can detect if scaling is performed by comparing the width
+and the height of rectangles obtained using ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` and
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE`` targets. If these are not equal then the
+scaling is applied. The application can compute the scaling ratios using
+these values.

+********************************
+Comparison with old cropping API
+********************************
+
+The selection API was introduced to cope with deficiencies of previous
+:ref:`API <crop>`, that was designed to control simple capture
+devices. Later the cropping API was adopted by video output drivers. The
+ioctls are used to select a part of the display were the video signal is
+inserted. It should be considered as an API abuse because the described
+operation is actually the composing. The selection API makes a clear
+distinction between composing and cropping operations by setting the
+appropriate targets. The V4L2 API lacks any support for composing to and
+cropping from an image inside a memory buffer. The application could
+configure a capture device to fill only a part of an image by abusing
+V4L2 API. Cropping a smaller image from a larger one is achieved by
+setting the field struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>```::bytesperline``.
+Introducing an image offsets could be done by modifying field struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>```::m_userptr`` before calling
+``VIDIOC_QBUF``. Those operations should be avoided because they are not
+portable (endianness), and do not work for macroblock and Bayer formats
+and mmap buffers. The selection API deals with configuration of buffer
+cropping/composing in a clear, intuitive and portable way. Next, with
+the selection API the concepts of the padded target and constraints
+flags are introduced. Finally, struct :ref:`v4l2_crop <v4l2-crop>`
+and struct :ref:`v4l2_cropcap <v4l2-cropcap>` have no reserved
+fields. Therefore there is no way to extend their functionality. The new
+struct :ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` provides a lot of place
+for future extensions. Driver developers are encouraged to implement
+only selection API. The former cropping API would be simulated using the
+new one.

+.. _standard:
+
+***************
+Video Standards
+***************
+
+Video devices typically support one or more different video standards or
+variations of standards. Each video input and output may support another
+set of standards. This set is reported by the ``std`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` and struct
+:ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT <vidioc-enumoutput>` ioctls, respectively.
+
+V4L2 defines one bit for each analog video standard currently in use
+worldwide, and sets aside bits for driver defined standards, e. g.
+hybrid standards to watch NTSC video tapes on PAL TVs and vice versa.
+Applications can use the predefined bits to select a particular
+standard, although presenting the user a menu of supported standards is
+preferred. To enumerate and query the attributes of the supported
+standards applications use the :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMSTD <vidioc-enumstd>`
+ioctl.
+
+Many of the defined standards are actually just variations of a few
+major standards. The hardware may in fact not distinguish between them,
+or do so internal and switch automatically. Therefore enumerated
+standards also contain sets of one or more standard bits.
+
+Assume a hypothetic tuner capable of demodulating B/PAL, G/PAL and I/PAL
+signals. The first enumerated standard is a set of B and G/PAL, switched
+automatically depending on the selected radio frequency in UHF or VHF
+band. Enumeration gives a "PAL-B/G" or "PAL-I" choice. Similar a
+Composite input may collapse standards, enumerating "PAL-B/G/H/I",
+"NTSC-M" and "SECAM-D/K". [1]_
+
+To query and select the standard used by the current video input or
+output applications call the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_STD <vidioc-g-std>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_STD <vidioc-g-std>` ioctl, respectively. The
+*received* standard can be sensed with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYSTD <vidioc-querystd>` ioctl. Note that the
+parameter of all these ioctls is a pointer to a
+:ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` type (a standard set), *not* an
+index into the standard enumeration. Drivers must implement all video
+standard ioctls when the device has one or more video inputs or outputs.
+
+Special rules apply to devices such as USB cameras where the notion of
+video standards makes little sense. More generally for any capture or
+output device which is:
+
+- incapable of capturing fields or frames at the nominal rate of the
+ video standard, or
+
+- that does not support the video standard formats at all.
+
+Here the driver shall set the ``std`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` and struct
+:ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>` to zero and the ``VIDIOC_G_STD``,
+``VIDIOC_S_STD``, ``VIDIOC_QUERYSTD`` and ``VIDIOC_ENUMSTD`` ioctls
+shall return the ENOTTY error code or the EINVAL error code.
+
+Applications can make use of the :ref:`input-capabilities` and
+:ref:`output-capabilities` flags to determine whether the video
+standard ioctls can be used with the given input or output.

+********************
+Streaming Parameters
+********************
+
+Streaming parameters are intended to optimize the video capture process
+as well as I/O. Presently applications can request a high quality
+capture mode with the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` ioctl.
+
+The current video standard determines a nominal number of frames per
+second. If less than this number of frames is to be captured or output,
+applications can request frame skipping or duplicating on the driver
+side. This is especially useful when using the
+:ref:`read() <func-read>` or :ref:`write() <func-write>`, which are
+not augmented by timestamps or sequence counters, and to avoid
+unnecessary data copying.
+
+Finally these ioctls can be used to determine the number of buffers used
+internally by a driver in read/write mode. For implications see the
+section discussing the :ref:`read() <func-read>` function.
+
+To get and set the streaming parameters applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_PARM <vidioc-g-parm>` ioctl, respectively. They take
+a pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_streamparm <v4l2-streamparm>`, which
+contains a union holding separate parameters for input and output
+devices.
+
+These ioctls are optional, drivers need not implement them. If so, they
+return the EINVAL error code.

+
+Media Bus Pixel Codes
+---------------------
+
+The media bus pixel codes describe image formats as flowing over
+physical busses (both between separate physical components and inside
+SoC devices). This should not be confused with the V4L2 pixel formats
+that describe, using four character codes, image formats as stored in
+memory.
+
+While there is a relationship between image formats on busses and image
+formats in memory (a raw Bayer image won't be magically converted to
+JPEG just by storing it to memory), there is no one-to-one
+correspondance between them.
+
+
+Packed RGB Formats
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Those formats transfer pixel data as red, green and blue components. The
+format code is made of the following information.
+
+- The red, green and blue components order code, as encoded in a pixel
+ sample. Possible values are RGB and BGR.
+
+- The number of bits per component, for each component. The values can
+ be different for all components. Common values are 555 and 565.
+
+- The number of bus samples per pixel. Pixels that are wider than the
+ bus width must be transferred in multiple samples. Common values are
+ 1 and 2.
+
+- The bus width.
+
+- For formats where the total number of bits per pixel is smaller than
+ the number of bus samples per pixel times the bus width, a padding
+ value stating if the bytes are padded in their most high order bits
+ (PADHI) or low order bits (PADLO). A "C" prefix is used for
+ component-wise padding in the most high order bits (CPADHI) or low
+ order bits (CPADLO) of each separate component.
+
+- For formats where the number of bus samples per pixel is larger than
+ 1, an endianness value stating if the pixel is transferred MSB first
+ (BE) or LSB first (LE).
+
+For instance, a format where pixels are encoded as 5-bits red, 5-bits
+green and 5-bit blue values padded on the high bit, transferred as 2
+8-bit samples per pixel with the most significant bits (padding, red and
+half of the green value) transferred first will be named
+``MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB555_2X8_PADHI_BE``.

+On LVDS buses, usually each sample is transferred serialized in seven
+time slots per pixel clock, on three (18-bit) or four (24-bit)
+differential data pairs at the same time. The remaining bits are used
+for control signals as defined by SPWG/PSWG/VESA or JEIDA standards. The
+24-bit RGB format serialized in seven time slots on four lanes using
+JEIDA defined bit mapping will be named
+``MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X7X4_JEIDA``, for example.

+Bayer Formats
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Those formats transfer pixel data as red, green and blue components. The
+format code is made of the following information.
+
+- The red, green and blue components order code, as encoded in a pixel
+ sample. The possible values are shown in :ref:`bayer-patterns`.
+
+- The number of bits per pixel component. All components are
+ transferred on the same number of bits. Common values are 8, 10 and
+ 12.
+
+- The compression (optional). If the pixel components are ALAW- or
+ DPCM-compressed, a mention of the compression scheme and the number
+ of bits per compressed pixel component.
+
+- The number of bus samples per pixel. Pixels that are wider than the
+ bus width must be transferred in multiple samples. Common values are
+ 1 and 2.
+
+- The bus width.
+
+- For formats where the total number of bits per pixel is smaller than
+ the number of bus samples per pixel times the bus width, a padding
+ value stating if the bytes are padded in their most high order bits
+ (PADHI) or low order bits (PADLO).
+
+- For formats where the number of bus samples per pixel is larger than
+ 1, an endianness value stating if the pixel is transferred MSB first
+ (BE) or LSB first (LE).
+
+For instance, a format with uncompressed 10-bit Bayer components
+arranged in a red, green, green, blue pattern transferred as 2 8-bit
+samples per pixel with the least significant bits transferred first will
+be named ``MEDIA_BUS_FMT_SRGGB10_2X8_PADHI_LE``.

+Packed YUV Formats
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Those data formats transfer pixel data as (possibly downsampled) Y, U
+and V components. Some formats include dummy bits in some of their
+samples and are collectively referred to as "YDYC" (Y-Dummy-Y-Chroma)
+formats. One cannot rely on the values of these dummy bits as those are
+undefined.
+
+The format code is made of the following information.
+
+- The Y, U and V components order code, as transferred on the bus.
+ Possible values are YUYV, UYVY, YVYU and VYUY for formats with no
+ dummy bit, and YDYUYDYV, YDYVYDYU, YUYDYVYD and YVYDYUYD for YDYC
+ formats.
+
+- The number of bits per pixel component. All components are
+ transferred on the same number of bits. Common values are 8, 10 and
+ 12.
+
+- The number of bus samples per pixel. Pixels that are wider than the
+ bus width must be transferred in multiple samples. Common values are
+ 1, 1.5 (encoded as 1_5) and 2.
+
+- The bus width. When the bus width is larger than the number of bits
+ per pixel component, several components are packed in a single bus
+ sample. The components are ordered as specified by the order code,
+ with components on the left of the code transferred in the high order
+ bits. Common values are 8 and 16.
+
+For instance, a format where pixels are encoded as 8-bit YUV values
+downsampled to 4:2:2 and transferred as 2 8-bit bus samples per pixel in
+the U, Y, V, Y order will be named ``MEDIA_BUS_FMT_UYVY8_2X8``.
+
+:ref:`v4l2-mbus-pixelcode-yuv8` lists existing packed YUV formats and
+describes the organization of each pixel data in each sample. When a
+format pattern is split across multiple samples each of the samples in
+the pattern is described.
+
+The role of each bit transferred over the bus is identified by one of
+the following codes.
+
+- y\ :sub:`x` for luma component bit number x
+
+- u\ :sub:`x` for blue chroma component bit number x
+
+- v\ :sub:`x` for red chroma component bit number x
+
+- a\ :sub:`x` for alpha component bit number x
+
+- - for non-available bits (for positions higher than the bus width)
+
+- d for dummy bits

+HSV/HSL Formats
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Those formats transfer pixel data as RGB values in a
+cylindrical-coordinate system using Hue-Saturation-Value or
+Hue-Saturation-Lightness components. The format code is made of the
+following information.
+
+- The hue, saturation, value or lightness and optional alpha components
+ order code, as encoded in a pixel sample. The only currently
+ supported value is AHSV.
+
+- The number of bits per component, for each component. The values can
+ be different for all components. The only currently supported value
+ is 8888.
+
+- The number of bus samples per pixel. Pixels that are wider than the
+ bus width must be transferred in multiple samples. The only currently
+ supported value is 1.
+
+- The bus width.
+
+- For formats where the total number of bits per pixel is smaller than
+ the number of bus samples per pixel times the bus width, a padding
+ value stating if the bytes are padded in their most high order bits
+ (PADHI) or low order bits (PADLO).
+
+- For formats where the number of bus samples per pixel is larger than
+ 1, an endianness value stating if the pixel is transferred MSB first
+ (BE) or LSB first (LE).
+
+The following table lists existing HSV/HSL formats.

+JPEG Compressed Formats
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Those data formats consist of an ordered sequence of 8-bit bytes
+obtained from JPEG compression process. Additionally to the ``_JPEG``
+postfix the format code is made of the following information.
+
+- The number of bus samples per entropy encoded byte.
+
+- The bus width.
+
+For instance, for a JPEG baseline process and an 8-bit bus width the
+format will be named ``MEDIA_BUS_FMT_JPEG_1X8``.
+
+The following table lists existing JPEG compressed formats.

+*********************
+Tuners and Modulators
+*********************
+
+
+Tuners
+======
+
+Video input devices can have one or more tuners demodulating a RF
+signal. Each tuner is associated with one or more video inputs,
+depending on the number of RF connectors on the tuner. The ``type``
+field of the respective struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>`
+returned by the :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` ioctl is
+set to ``V4L2_INPUT_TYPE_TUNER`` and its ``tuner`` field contains the
+index number of the tuner.
+
+Radio input devices have exactly one tuner with index zero, no video
+inputs.
+
+To query and change tuner properties applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_TUNER <vidioc-g-tuner>` ioctls, respectively. The
+struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` returned by ``VIDIOC_G_TUNER``
+also contains signal status information applicable when the tuner of the
+current video or radio input is queried. Note that ``VIDIOC_S_TUNER``
+does not switch the current tuner, when there is more than one at all.
+The tuner is solely determined by the current video input. Drivers must
+support both ioctls and set the ``V4L2_CAP_TUNER`` flag in the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl when the device has
+one or more tuners.
+
+
+Modulators
+==========
+
+Video output devices can have one or more modulators, uh, modulating a
+video signal for radiation or connection to the antenna input of a TV
+set or video recorder. Each modulator is associated with one or more
+video outputs, depending on the number of RF connectors on the
+modulator. The ``type`` field of the respective struct
+:ref:`v4l2_output <v4l2-output>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT <vidioc-enumoutput>` ioctl is set to
+``V4L2_OUTPUT_TYPE_MODULATOR`` and its ``modulator`` field contains the
+index number of the modulator.
+
+Radio output devices have exactly one modulator with index zero, no
+video outputs.
+
+A video or radio device cannot support both a tuner and a modulator. Two
+separate device nodes will have to be used for such hardware, one that
+supports the tuner functionality and one that supports the modulator
+functionality. The reason is a limitation with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` ioctl where you
+cannot specify whether the frequency is for a tuner or a modulator.
+
+To query and change modulator properties applications use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_MODULATOR <vidioc-g-modulator>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_MODULATOR <vidioc-g-modulator>` ioctl. Note that
+``VIDIOC_S_MODULATOR`` does not switch the current modulator, when there
+is more than one at all. The modulator is solely determined by the
+current video output. Drivers must support both ioctls and set the
+``V4L2_CAP_MODULATOR`` flag in the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` returned by the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl when the device has
+one or more modulators.
+
+
+Radio Frequency
+===============
+
+To get and set the tuner or modulator radio frequency applications use
+the :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` ioctl which both take
+a pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_frequency <v4l2-frequency>`. These
+ioctls are used for TV and radio devices alike. Drivers must support
+both ioctls when the tuner or modulator ioctls are supported, or when
+the device is a radio device.

+must be determined by calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl.
+
+This I/O method combines advantages of the read/write and memory mapping
+methods. Buffers (planes) are allocated by the application itself, and
+can reside for example in virtual or shared memory. Only pointers to
+data are exchanged, these pointers and meta-information are passed in
+struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` (or in struct
+:ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` in the multi-planar API case). The
+driver must be switched into user pointer I/O mode by calling the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` with the desired buffer type.
+No buffers (planes) are allocated beforehand, consequently they are not
+indexed and cannot be queried like mapped buffers with the
+``VIDIOC_QUERYBUF`` ioctl.
+
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct v4l2_requestbuffers reqbuf;
+
+ memset (&reqbuf, 0, sizeof (reqbuf));
+ reqbuf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE;
+ reqbuf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_USERPTR;
+
+ if (ioctl (fd, VIDIOC_REQBUFS, &reqbuf) == -1) {
+ if (errno == EINVAL)
+ printf ("Video capturing or user pointer streaming is not supported\\n");
+ else
+ perror ("VIDIOC_REQBUFS");
+
+ exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
+ }
+
+Buffer (plane) addresses and sizes are passed on the fly with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. Although buffers are commonly
+cycled, applications can pass different addresses and sizes at each
+``VIDIOC_QBUF`` call. If required by the hardware the driver swaps
+memory pages within physical memory to create a continuous area of
+memory. This happens transparently to the application in the virtual
+memory subsystem of the kernel. When buffer pages have been swapped out
+to disk they are brought back and finally locked in physical memory for
+DMA. [1]_
+
+Filled or displayed buffers are dequeued with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl. The driver can unlock the
+memory pages at any time between the completion of the DMA and this
+ioctl. The memory is also unlocked when
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` is called,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>`, or when the device is closed.
+Applications must take care not to free buffers without dequeuing. For
+once, the buffers remain locked until further, wasting physical memory.
+Second the driver will not be notified when the memory is returned to
+the application's free list and subsequently reused for other purposes,
+possibly completing the requested DMA and overwriting valuable data.
+
+For capturing applications it is customary to enqueue a number of empty
+buffers, to start capturing and enter the read loop. Here the
+application waits until a filled buffer can be dequeued, and re-enqueues
+the buffer when the data is no longer needed. Output applications fill
+and enqueue buffers, when enough buffers are stacked up output is
+started. In the write loop, when the application runs out of free
+buffers it must wait until an empty buffer can be dequeued and reused.
+Two methods exist to suspend execution of the application until one or
+more buffers can be dequeued. By default ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` blocks when no
+buffer is in the outgoing queue. When the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given
+to the :ref:`open() <func-open>` function, ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` returns
+immediately with an EAGAIN error code when no buffer is available. The
+:ref:`select() <func-select>` or :ref:`poll() <func-poll>` function
+are always available.
+
+To start and stop capturing or output applications call the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` ioctl. Note
+``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` removes all buffers from both queues and unlocks
+all buffers as a side effect. Since there is no notion of doing anything
+"now" on a multitasking system, if an application needs to synchronize
+with another event it should examine the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` ``timestamp`` of captured or
+outputted buffers.
+
+Drivers implementing user pointer I/O must support the
+``VIDIOC_REQBUFS``, ``VIDIOC_QBUF``, ``VIDIOC_DQBUF``,
+``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` and ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` ioctl, the
+:c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` function. [2]_
+
+.. [1]
+ We expect that frequently used buffers are typically not swapped out.
+ Anyway, the process of swapping, locking or generating scatter-gather
+ lists may be time consuming. The delay can be masked by the depth of
+ the incoming buffer queue, and perhaps by maintaining caches assuming
+ a buffer will be soon enqueued again. On the other hand, to optimize
+ memory usage drivers can limit the number of buffers locked in
+ advance and recycle the most recently used buffers first. Of course,
+ the pages of empty buffers in the incoming queue need not be saved to
+ disk. Output buffers must be saved on the incoming and outgoing queue
+ because an application may share them with other processes.
+
+.. [2]
+ At the driver level :c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` are
+ the same, and :c:func:`select()` is too important to be optional.
+ The rest should be evident.

+Video Inputs and Outputs
+************************
+
+Video inputs and outputs are physical connectors of a device. These can
+be for example RF connectors (antenna/cable), CVBS a.k.a. Composite
+Video, S-Video or RGB connectors. Video and VBI capture devices have
+inputs. Video and VBI output devices have outputs, at least one each.
+Radio devices have no video inputs or outputs.
+
+To learn about the number and attributes of the available inputs and
+outputs applications can enumerate them with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT <vidioc-enumoutput>` ioctl, respectively. The
+struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` returned by the
+``VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT`` ioctl also contains signal status information
+applicable when the current video input is queried.
+
+The :ref:`VIDIOC_G_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_OUTPUT <vidioc-g-output>` ioctls return the index of
+the current video input or output. To select a different input or output
+applications call the :ref:`VIDIOC_S_INPUT <vidioc-g-input>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_OUTPUT <vidioc-g-output>` ioctls. Drivers must
+implement all the input ioctls when the device has one or more inputs,

+Create buffers for Memory Mapped or User Pointer or DMA Buffer I/O
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_create_buffers *argp )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl is used to create buffers for :ref:`memory mapped <mmap>`
+or :ref:`user pointer <userp>` or :ref:`DMA buffer <dmabuf>` I/O. It
+can be used as an alternative or in addition to the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl, when a tighter control
+over buffers is required. This ioctl can be called multiple times to
+create buffers of different sizes.
+
+To allocate the device buffers applications must initialize the relevant
+fields of the :c:type:`struct v4l2_create_buffers` structure. The
+``count`` field must be set to the number of requested buffers, the
+``memory`` field specifies the requested I/O method and the ``reserved``
+array must be zeroed.
+
+The ``format`` field specifies the image format that the buffers must be
+able to handle. The application has to fill in this struct
+:ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>`. Usually this will be done using the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>` ioctls to ensure that the
+requested format is supported by the driver. Based on the format's
+``type`` field the requested buffer size (for single-planar) or plane
+sizes (for multi-planar formats) will be used for the allocated buffers.
+The driver may return an error if the size(s) are not supported by the
+hardware (usually because they are too small).
+
+The buffers created by this ioctl will have as minimum size the size
+defined by the ``format.pix.sizeimage`` field (or the corresponding
+fields for other format types). Usually if the ``format.pix.sizeimage``
+field is less than the minimum required for the given format, then an
+error will be returned since drivers will typically not allow this. If
+it is larger, then the value will be used as-is. In other words, the
+driver may reject the requested size, but if it is accepted the driver
+will use it unchanged.
+
+When the ioctl is called with a pointer to this structure the driver
+will attempt to allocate up to the requested number of buffers and store
+the actual number allocated and the starting index in the ``count`` and
+the ``index`` fields respectively. On return ``count`` can be smaller
+than the number requested.

+ ``format.type``. If those are invalid -1 is returned and errno is

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Applications use this function to query the cropping limits, the pixel
+aspect of images and to calculate scale factors. They set the ``type``
+field of a v4l2_cropcap structure to the respective buffer (stream)
+type and call the ``VIDIOC_CROPCAP`` ioctl with a pointer to this
+structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure. The results are
+constant except when switching the video standard. Remember this switch
+can occur implicit when switching the video input or output.
+
+Do not use the multiplanar buffer types. Use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE`` and use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``.
+
+This ioctl must be implemented for video capture or output devices that
+support cropping and/or scaling and/or have non-square pixels, and for
+overlay devices.

+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+ **Note**
+
+ This is an :ref:`experimental <experimental>` interface and may
+ change in the future.
+
+For driver debugging purposes this ioctl allows test applications to
+query the driver about the chips present on the TV card. Regular
+applications must not use it. When you found a chip specific bug, please
+contact the linux-media mailing list
+(`https://linuxtv.org/lists.php <https://linuxtv.org/lists.php>`__)
+so it can be fixed.
+
+Additionally the Linux kernel must be compiled with the
+``CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG`` option to enable this ioctl.
+
+To query the driver applications must initialize the ``match.type`` and
+``match.addr`` or ``match.name`` fields of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_dbg_chip_info <v4l2-dbg-chip-info>` and call
+``VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO`` with a pointer to this structure. On success
+the driver stores information about the selected chip in the ``name``
+and ``flags`` fields.
+
+When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_BRIDGE``, ``match.addr``
+selects the nth bridge 'chip' on the TV card. You can enumerate all
+chips by starting at zero and incrementing ``match.addr`` by one until
+``VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO`` fails with an EINVAL error code. The number
+zero always selects the bridge chip itself, e. g. the chip connected to
+the PCI or USB bus. Non-zero numbers identify specific parts of the
+bridge chip such as an AC97 register block.
+
+When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV``, ``match.addr``
+selects the nth sub-device. This allows you to enumerate over all
+sub-devices.
+
+On success, the ``name`` field will contain a chip name and the
+``flags`` field will contain ``V4L2_CHIP_FL_READABLE`` if the driver
+supports reading registers from the device or ``V4L2_CHIP_FL_WRITABLE``
+if the driver supports writing registers to the device.
+
+We recommended the v4l2-dbg utility over calling this ioctl directly. It
+is available from the LinuxTV v4l-dvb repository; see

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+ **Note**
+
+ This is an :ref:`experimental <experimental>` interface and may
+ change in the future.
+
+For driver debugging purposes these ioctls allow test applications to
+access hardware registers directly. Regular applications must not use
+them.
+
+Since writing or even reading registers can jeopardize the system
+security, its stability and damage the hardware, both ioctls require
+superuser privileges. Additionally the Linux kernel must be compiled
+with the ``CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG`` option to enable these ioctls.
+
+To write a register applications must initialize all fields of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_dbg_register <v4l2-dbg-register>` except for ``size`` and
+call ``VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER`` with a pointer to this structure. The
+``match.type`` and ``match.addr`` or ``match.name`` fields select a chip
+on the TV card, the ``reg`` field specifies a register number and the
+``val`` field the value to be written into the register.
+
+To read a register applications must initialize the ``match.type``,
+``match.addr`` or ``match.name`` and ``reg`` fields, and call
+``VIDIOC_DBG_G_REGISTER`` with a pointer to this structure. On success
+the driver stores the register value in the ``val`` field and the size
+(in bytes) of the value in ``size``.
+
+When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_BRIDGE``, ``match.addr``
+selects the nth non-sub-device chip on the TV card. The number zero
+always selects the host chip, e. g. the chip connected to the PCI or USB
+bus. You can find out which chips are present with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO <vidioc-dbg-g-chip-info>` ioctl.
+
+When ``match.type`` is ``V4L2_CHIP_MATCH_SUBDEV``, ``match.addr``
+selects the nth sub-device.
+
+These ioctls are optional, not all drivers may support them. However
+when a driver supports these ioctls it must also support
+:ref:`VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO <vidioc-dbg-g-chip-info>`. Conversely
+it may support ``VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_INFO`` but not these ioctls.
+
+``VIDIOC_DBG_G_REGISTER`` and ``VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER`` were introduced
+in Linux 2.6.21, but their API was changed to the one described here in
+kernel 2.6.29.
+
+We recommended the v4l2-dbg utility over calling these ioctls directly.
+It is available from the LinuxTV v4l-dvb repository; see
+`https://linuxtv.org/repo/ <https://linuxtv.org/repo/>`__ for access
+instructions.

+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls control an audio/video (usually MPEG-) decoder.
+``VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD`` sends a command to the decoder,
+``VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD`` can be used to try a command without actually
+executing it. To send a command applications must initialize all fields
+of a struct :ref:`v4l2_decoder_cmd <v4l2-decoder-cmd>` and call
+``VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD`` or ``VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD`` with a pointer to
+this structure.
+
+The ``cmd`` field must contain the command code. Some commands use the
+``flags`` field for additional information.
+
+A :c:func:`write()`() or :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>`
+call sends an implicit START command to the decoder if it has not been
+started yet.
+
+A :c:func:`close()`() or :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>`
+call of a streaming file descriptor sends an implicit immediate STOP
+command to the decoder, and all buffered data is discarded.
+
+These ioctls are optional, not all drivers may support them. They were
+introduced in Linux 3.3.

+ Negative numbers denote reverse playback, so -1000 does reverse
+ playback at normal speed. Speeds -1, 0 and 1 have special
+ meanings: speed 0 is shorthand for 1000 (normal playback). A speed
+ of 1 steps just one frame forward, a speed of -1 steps just one
+ frame back.
+
+ - .. row 6
+
+ -
+ -
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``format``
+
+ - Format restrictions. This field is set by the driver, not the
+ application. Possible values are ``V4L2_DEC_START_FMT_NONE`` if
+ there are no format restrictions or ``V4L2_DEC_START_FMT_GOP`` if
+ the decoder operates on full GOPs (*Group Of Pictures*). This is
+ usually the case for reverse playback: the decoder needs full
+ GOPs, which it can then play in reverse order. So to implement
+ reverse playback the application must feed the decoder the last
+ GOP in the video file, then the GOP before that, etc. etc.

+
+ - 0
+
+ - Start the decoder. When the decoder is already running or paused,
+ this command will just change the playback speed. That means that
+ calling ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_START`` when the decoder was paused will
+ *not* resume the decoder. You have to explicitly call
+ ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_RESUME`` for that. This command has one flag:
+ ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_START_MUTE_AUDIO``. If set, then audio will be
+ muted when playing back at a non-standard speed.
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP``
+
+ - 1
+
+ - Stop the decoder. When the decoder is already stopped, this
+ command does nothing. This command has two flags: if
+ ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP_TO_BLACK`` is set, then the decoder will set
+ the picture to black after it stopped decoding. Otherwise the last
+ image will repeat. mem2mem decoders will stop producing new frames
+ altogether. They will send a ``V4L2_EVENT_EOS`` event when the
+ last frame has been decoded and all frames are ready to be
+ dequeued and will set the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST`` buffer flag on
+ the last buffer of the capture queue to indicate there will be no
+ new buffers produced to dequeue. This buffer may be empty,
+ indicated by the driver setting the ``bytesused`` field to 0. Once
+ the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST`` flag was set, the
+ :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` ioctl will not block anymore,
+ but return an EPIPE error code. If
+ ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP_IMMEDIATELY`` is set, then the decoder stops
+ immediately (ignoring the ``pts`` value), otherwise it will keep
+ decoding until timestamp >= pts or until the last of the pending
+ data from its internal buffers was decoded.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_PAUSE``
+
+ - 2
+
+ - Pause the decoder. When the decoder has not been started yet, the
+ driver will return an EPERM error code. When the decoder is
+ already paused, this command does nothing. This command has one
+ flag: if ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_PAUSE_TO_BLACK`` is set, then set the
+ decoder output to black when paused.
+
+ - .. row 4
+
+ - ``V4L2_DEC_CMD_RESUME``
+
+ - 3
+
+ - Resume decoding after a PAUSE command. When the decoder has not
+ been started yet, the driver will return an EPERM error code. When
+ the decoder is already running, this command does nothing. No
+ flags are defined for this command.
+
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+EINVAL
+ The ``cmd`` field is invalid.

+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls control an audio/video (usually MPEG-) encoder.
+``VIDIOC_ENCODER_CMD`` sends a command to the encoder,
+``VIDIOC_TRY_ENCODER_CMD`` can be used to try a command without actually
+executing it.
+
+To send a command applications must initialize all fields of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_encoder_cmd <v4l2-encoder-cmd>` and call
+``VIDIOC_ENCODER_CMD`` or ``VIDIOC_TRY_ENCODER_CMD`` with a pointer to
+this structure.
+
+The ``cmd`` field must contain the command code. The ``flags`` field is
+currently only used by the STOP command and contains one bit: If the
+``V4L2_ENC_CMD_STOP_AT_GOP_END`` flag is set, encoding will continue
+until the end of the current *Group Of Pictures*, otherwise it will stop
+immediately.
+
+A :c:func:`read()`() or :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON <vidioc-streamon>`
+call sends an implicit START command to the encoder if it has not been
+started yet. After a STOP command, :c:func:`read()`() calls will read
+the remaining data buffered by the driver. When the buffer is empty,
+:c:func:`read()`() will return zero and the next :c:func:`read()`()
+call will restart the encoder.
+
+A :c:func:`close()`() or :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>`
+call of a streaming file descriptor sends an implicit immediate STOP to
+the encoder, and all buffered data is discarded.
+
+These ioctls are optional, not all drivers may support them. They were

+
+To query the available timings, applications initialize the ``index``

+

+ Pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_frmivalenum <v4l2-frmivalenum>`
+ structure that contains a pixel format and size and receives a frame
+ interval.
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl allows applications to enumerate all frame intervals that the
+device supports for the given pixel format and frame size.
+
+The supported pixel formats and frame sizes can be obtained by using the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT <vidioc-enum-fmt>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUM_FRAMESIZES <vidioc-enum-framesizes>` functions.
+
+The return value and the content of the ``v4l2_frmivalenum.type`` field
+depend on the type of frame intervals the device supports. Here are the
+semantics of the function for the different cases:
+
+- **Discrete:** The function returns success if the given index value
+ (zero-based) is valid. The application should increase the index by
+ one for each call until ``EINVAL`` is returned. The
+ `v4l2_frmivalenum.type` field is set to
+ `V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_DISCRETE` by the driver. Of the union only
+ the `discrete` member is valid.
+
+- **Step-wise:** The function returns success if the given index value
+ is zero and ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The
+ ``v4l2_frmivalenum.type`` field is set to
+ ``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_STEPWISE`` by the driver. Of the union only the
+ ``stepwise`` member is valid.
+
+- **Continuous:** This is a special case of the step-wise type above.
+ The function returns success if the given index value is zero and
+ ``EINVAL`` for any other index value. The ``v4l2_frmivalenum.type``
+ field is set to ``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_CONTINUOUS`` by the driver. Of
+ the union only the ``stepwise`` member is valid and the ``step``
+ value is set to 1.
+
+When the application calls the function with index zero, it must check
+the ``type`` field to determine the type of frame interval enumeration
+the device supports. Only for the ``V4L2_FRMIVAL_TYPE_DISCRETE`` type
+does it make sense to increase the index value to receive more frame
+intervals.
+
+Note that the order in which the frame intervals are returned has no
+special meaning. In particular does it not say anything about potential
+default frame intervals.
+
+Applications can assume that the enumeration data does not change
+without any interaction from the application itself. This means that the
+enumeration data is consistent if the application does not perform any
+other ioctl calls while it runs the frame interval enumeration.
+
+
+Notes
+=====
+
+- **Frame intervals and frame rates:** The V4L2 API uses frame
+ intervals instead of frame rates. Given the frame interval the frame
+ rate can be computed as follows:
+
+
+
+ ::
+
+ frame_rate = 1 / frame_interval
+

+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the attributes of a video input applications initialize the
+``index`` field of struct :ref:`v4l2_input <v4l2-input>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers
+fill the rest of the structure or return an EINVAL error code when the
+index is out of bounds. To enumerate all inputs applications shall begin
+at index zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns EINVAL.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-input:
+
+.. flat-table:: struct v4l2_input

+
+ - ``audioset``
+
+ - Drivers can enumerate up to 32 video and audio inputs. This field
+ shows which audio inputs were selectable as audio source if this
+ was the currently selected video input. It is a bit mask. The LSB
+ corresponds to audio input 0, the MSB to input 31. Any number of
+ bits can be set, or none.
+
+ When the driver does not enumerate audio inputs no bits must be
+ set. Applications shall not interpret this as lack of audio
+ support. Some drivers automatically select audio sources and do
+ not enumerate them since there is no choice anyway.
+
+ For details on audio inputs and how to select the current input
+ see :ref:`audio`.

+ RF connector and this field identifies the tuner. It corresponds
+ to struct :ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` field ``index``. For
+ details on tuners see :ref:`tuner`.
+
+ - .. row 6

+*******************
+
+*man VIDIOC_EXPBUF(2)*
+
+Export a buffer as a DMABUF file descriptor.
+
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_exportbuffer *argp )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <func-open>`.
+
+``request``
+ VIDIOC_EXPBUF
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl is an extension to the :ref:`memory mapping <mmap>` I/O
+method, therefore it is available only for ``V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP`` buffers.
+It can be used to export a buffer as a DMABUF file at any time after
+buffers have been allocated with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl.
+
+To export a buffer, applications fill struct
+:ref:`v4l2_exportbuffer <v4l2-exportbuffer>`. The ``type`` field is
+set to the same buffer type as was previously used with struct
+:ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``type``.
+Applications must also set the ``index`` field. Valid index numbers
+range from zero to the number of buffers allocated with
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` (struct
+:ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``count``) minus
+one. For the multi-planar API, applications set the ``plane`` field to
+the index of the plane to be exported. Valid planes range from zero to
+the maximal number of valid planes for the currently active format. For
+the single-planar API, applications must set ``plane`` to zero.
+Additional flags may be posted in the ``flags`` field. Refer to a manual
+for open() for details. Currently only O_CLOEXEC, O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY,
+and O_RDWR are supported. All other fields must be set to zero. In the
+case of multi-planar API, every plane is exported separately using
+multiple ``VIDIOC_EXPBUF`` calls.
+
+After calling ``VIDIOC_EXPBUF`` the ``fd`` field will be set by a
+driver. This is a DMABUF file descriptor. The application may pass it to
+other DMABUF-aware devices. Refer to :ref:`DMABUF importing <dmabuf>`
+for details about importing DMABUF files into V4L2 nodes. It is
+recommended to close a DMABUF file when it is no longer used to allow
+the associated memory to be reclaimed.

+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the cropping rectangle size and position applications set the
+``type`` field of a :c:type:`struct v4l2_crop` structure to the
+respective buffer (stream) type and call the ``VIDIOC_G_CROP`` ioctl
+with a pointer to this structure. The driver fills the rest of the
+structure or returns the EINVAL error code if cropping is not supported.
+
+To change the cropping rectangle applications initialize the ``type``
+and struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` substructure named ``c`` of a
+v4l2_crop structure and call the ``VIDIOC_S_CROP`` ioctl with a pointer
+to this structure.
+
+Do not use the multiplanar buffer types. Use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE`` and use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``.
+
+The driver first adjusts the requested dimensions against hardware
+limits, i. e. the bounds given by the capture/output window, and it
+rounds to the closest possible values of horizontal and vertical offset,
+width and height. In particular the driver must round the vertical
+offset of the cropping rectangle to frame lines modulo two, such that
+the field order cannot be confused.
+
+Second the driver adjusts the image size (the opposite rectangle of the
+scaling process, source or target depending on the data direction) to
+the closest size possible while maintaining the current horizontal and
+vertical scaling factor.
+
+Finally the driver programs the hardware with the actual cropping and
+image parameters. ``VIDIOC_S_CROP`` is a write-only ioctl, it does not
+return the actual parameters. To query them applications must call
+``VIDIOC_G_CROP`` and :ref:`VIDIOC_G_FMT <vidioc-g-fmt>`. When the
+parameters are unsuitable the application may modify the cropping or
+image parameters and repeat the cycle until satisfactory parameters have
+been negotiated.
+
+When cropping is not supported then no parameters are changed and
+``VIDIOC_S_CROP`` returns the EINVAL error code.

+Description
+===========
+
+To get the current value of a control applications initialize the ``id``
+field of a struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_control` and call the
+``VIDIOC_G_CTRL`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. To change the
+value of a control applications initialize the ``id`` and ``value``
+fields of a struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_control` and call the
+``VIDIOC_S_CTRL`` ioctl.
+
+When the ``id`` is invalid drivers return an EINVAL error code. When the
+``value`` is out of bounds drivers can choose to take the closest valid
+value or return an ERANGE error code, whatever seems more appropriate.
+However, ``VIDIOC_S_CTRL`` is a write-only ioctl, it does not return the
+actual new value. If the ``value`` is inappropriate for the control
+(e.g. if it refers to an unsupported menu index of a menu control), then
+EINVAL error code is returned as well.
+
+These ioctls work only with user controls. For other control classes the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>`,
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS <vidioc-g-ext-ctrls>` must be used.

+Description
+===========
+
+To set DV timings for the input or output, applications use the
+``VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS`` ioctl and to get the current timings,
+applications use the ``VIDIOC_G_DV_TIMINGS`` ioctl. The detailed timing
+information is filled in using the structure struct

+values are not correct, the driver returns EINVAL error code.
+
+The ``linux/v4l2-dv-timings.h`` header can be used to get the timings of
+the formats in the :ref:`cea861` and :ref:`vesadmt` standards. If

+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls can be used to get or set an EDID associated with an input
+from a receiver or an output of a transmitter device. They can be used
+with subdevice nodes (/dev/v4l-subdevX) or with video nodes
+(/dev/videoX).
+
+When used with video nodes the ``pad`` field represents the input (for
+video capture devices) or output (for video output devices) index as is
+returned by :ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT <vidioc-enuminput>` and
+:ref:`VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT <vidioc-enumoutput>` respectively. When used
+with subdevice nodes the ``pad`` field represents the input or output
+pad of the subdevice. If there is no EDID support for the given ``pad``
+value, then the EINVAL error code will be returned.
+
+To get the EDID data the application has to fill in the ``pad``,
+``start_block``, ``blocks`` and ``edid`` fields, zero the ``reserved``
+array and call ``VIDIOC_G_EDID``. The current EDID from block
+``start_block`` and of size ``blocks`` will be placed in the memory
+``edid`` points to. The ``edid`` pointer must point to memory at least
+``blocks`` * 128 bytes large (the size of one block is 128 bytes).
+
+If there are fewer blocks than specified, then the driver will set
+``blocks`` to the actual number of blocks. If there are no EDID blocks
+available at all, then the error code ENODATA is set.
+
+If blocks have to be retrieved from the sink, then this call will block
+until they have been read.
+
+If ``start_block`` and ``blocks`` are both set to 0 when
+``VIDIOC_G_EDID`` is called, then the driver will set ``blocks`` to the
+total number of available EDID blocks and it will return 0 without
+copying any data. This is an easy way to discover how many EDID blocks
+there are. Note that if there are no EDID blocks available at all, then
+the driver will set ``blocks`` to 0 and it returns 0.
+
+To set the EDID blocks of a receiver the application has to fill in the
+``pad``, ``blocks`` and ``edid`` fields, set ``start_block`` to 0 and
+zero the ``reserved`` array. It is not possible to set part of an EDID,
+it is always all or nothing. Setting the EDID data is only valid for
+receivers as it makes no sense for a transmitter.
+
+The driver assumes that the full EDID is passed in. If there are more
+EDID blocks than the hardware can handle then the EDID is not written,
+but instead the error code E2BIG is set and ``blocks`` is set to the
+maximum that the hardware supports. If ``start_block`` is any value
+other than 0 then the error code EINVAL is set.
+
+To disable an EDID you set ``blocks`` to 0. Depending on the hardware
+this will drive the hotplug pin low and/or block the source from reading
+the EDID data in some way. In any case, the end result is the same: the
+EDID is no longer available.

+
+Description
+===========
+
+The ``VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX`` ioctl provides meta data about a compressed
+video stream the same or another application currently reads from the
+driver, which is useful for random access into the stream without
+decoding it.
+
+To read the data applications must call ``VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX`` with a
+pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_enc_idx <v4l2-enc-idx>`. On success
+the driver fills the ``entry`` array, stores the number of elements
+written in the ``entries`` field, and initializes the ``entries_cap``
+field.
+
+Each element of the ``entry`` array contains meta data about one
+picture. A ``VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX`` call reads up to
+``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES`` entries from a driver buffer, which can hold up
+to ``entries_cap`` entries. This number can be lower or higher than
+``V4L2_ENC_IDX_ENTRIES``, but not zero. When the application fails to
+read the meta data in time the oldest entries will be lost. When the
+buffer is empty or no capturing/encoding is in progress, ``entries``
+will be zero.
+
+Currently this ioctl is only defined for MPEG-2 program streams and
+video elementary streams.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls allow the caller to get or set multiple controls
+atomically. Control IDs are grouped into control classes (see
+:ref:`ctrl-class`) and all controls in the control array must belong
+to the same control class.
+
+Applications must always fill in the ``count``, ``which``, ``controls``
+and ``reserved`` fields of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_controls <v4l2-ext-controls>`, and initialize the
+struct :ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` array pointed to
+by the ``controls`` fields.
+
+To get the current value of a set of controls applications initialize
+the ``id``, ``size`` and ``reserved2`` fields of each struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS`` ioctl. String controls controls must also set the
+``string`` field. Controls of compound types
+(``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_HAS_PAYLOAD`` is set) must set the ``ptr`` field.
+
+If the ``size`` is too small to receive the control result (only
+relevant for pointer-type controls like strings), then the driver will
+set ``size`` to a valid value and return an ENOSPC error code. You
+should re-allocate the memory to this new size and try again. For the
+string type it is possible that the same issue occurs again if the
+string has grown in the meantime. It is recommended to call
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>` first and use
+``maximum``\ +1 as the new ``size`` value. It is guaranteed that that is
+sufficient memory.
+
+N-dimensional arrays are set and retrieved row-by-row. You cannot set a
+partial array, all elements have to be set or retrieved. The total size
+is calculated as ``elems`` * ``elem_size``. These values can be obtained
+by calling :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL <vidioc-queryctrl>`.
+
+To change the value of a set of controls applications initialize the
+``id``, ``size``, ``reserved2`` and ``value/value64/string/ptr`` fields
+of each struct :ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` and call
+the ``VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS`` ioctl. The controls will only be set if *all*
+control values are valid.
+
+To check if a set of controls have correct values applications
+initialize the ``id``, ``size``, ``reserved2`` and
+``value/value64/string/ptr`` fields of each struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS`` ioctl. It is up to the driver whether wrong
+values are automatically adjusted to a valid value or if an error is
+returned.
+
+When the ``id`` or ``which`` is invalid drivers return an EINVAL error
+code. When the value is out of bounds drivers can choose to take the
+closest valid value or return an ERANGE error code, whatever seems more
+appropriate. In the first case the new value is set in struct
+:ref:`v4l2_ext_control <v4l2-ext-control>`. If the new control value
+is inappropriate (e.g. the given menu index is not supported by the menu
+control), then this will also result in an EINVAL error code error.
+
+The driver will only set/get these controls if all control values are
+correct. This prevents the situation where only some of the controls
+were set/get. Only low-level errors (e. g. a failed i2c command) can
+still cause this situation.

+ less than is required to store the payload result, then it is set
+ to a value large enough to store the payload result and ENOSPC is

+
+ For backwards compatibility you can also use a control class here
+ (see :ref:`ctrl-class`). In that case all controls have to
+ belong to that control class. This usage is deprecated, instead
+ just use ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL``. There are some very old
+ drivers that do not yet support ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL`` and
+ that require a control class here. You can test for such drivers
+ by setting ctrl_class to ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL`` and calling
+ VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS with a count of 0. If that fails, then the
+ driver does not support ``V4L2_CTRL_WHICH_CUR_VAL``.
+

+
+ - Set by the driver in case of an error. If the error is associated
+ with a particular control, then ``error_idx`` is set to the index
+ of that control. If the error is not related to a specific
+ control, or the validation step failed (see below), then
+ ``error_idx`` is set to ``count``. The value is undefined if the
+ ioctl returned 0 (success).
+
+ Before controls are read from/written to hardware a validation
+ step takes place: this checks if all controls in the list are
+ valid controls, if no attempt is made to write to a read-only
+ control or read from a write-only control, and any other up-front
+ checks that can be done without accessing the hardware. The exact
+ validations done during this step are driver dependent since some
+ checks might require hardware access for some devices, thus making
+ it impossible to do those checks up-front. However, drivers should
+ make a best-effort to do as many up-front checks as possible.
+
+ This check is done to avoid leaving the hardware in an
+ inconsistent state due to easy-to-avoid problems. But it leads to
+ another problem: the application needs to know whether an error
+ came from the validation step (meaning that the hardware was not
+ touched) or from an error during the actual reading from/writing
+ to hardware.
+
+ The, in hindsight quite poor, solution for that is to set
+ ``error_idx`` to ``count`` if the validation failed. This has the
+ unfortunate side-effect that it is not possible to see which
+ control failed the validation. If the validation was successful
+ and the error happened while accessing the hardware, then
+ ``error_idx`` is less than ``count`` and only the controls up to
+ ``error_idx-1`` were read or written correctly, and the state of
+ the remaining controls is undefined.
+
+ Since ``VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS`` does not access hardware there is
+ also no need to handle the validation step in this special way, so
+ ``error_idx`` will just be set to the control that failed the
+ validation step instead of to ``count``. This means that if
+ ``VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS`` fails with ``error_idx`` set to ``count``,
+ then you can call ``VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS`` to try to discover the
+ actual control that failed the validation step. Unfortunately,
+ there is no ``TRY`` equivalent for ``VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS``.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Applications can use the ``VIDIOC_G_FBUF`` and ``VIDIOC_S_FBUF`` ioctl
+to get and set the framebuffer parameters for a
+:ref:`Video Overlay <overlay>` or :ref:`Video Output Overlay <osd>`
+(OSD). The type of overlay is implied by the device type (capture or
+output device) and can be determined with the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP <vidioc-querycap>` ioctl. One ``/dev/videoN``
+device must not support both kinds of overlay.
+
+The V4L2 API distinguishes destructive and non-destructive overlays. A
+destructive overlay copies captured video images into the video memory
+of a graphics card. A non-destructive overlay blends video images into a
+VGA signal or graphics into a video signal. *Video Output Overlays* are
+always non-destructive.
+
+To get the current parameters applications call the ``VIDIOC_G_FBUF``
+ioctl with a pointer to a :c:type:`struct v4l2_framebuffer`
+structure. The driver fills all fields of the structure or returns an
+EINVAL error code when overlays are not supported.
+
+To set the parameters for a *Video Output Overlay*, applications must
+initialize the ``flags`` field of a struct
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_framebuffer`. Since the framebuffer is
+implemented on the TV card all other parameters are determined by the
+driver. When an application calls ``VIDIOC_S_FBUF`` with a pointer to
+this structure, the driver prepares for the overlay and returns the
+framebuffer parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FBUF`` does, or it returns an error
+code.
+
+To set the parameters for a *non-destructive Video Overlay*,
+applications must initialize the ``flags`` field, the ``fmt``
+substructure, and call ``VIDIOC_S_FBUF``. Again the driver prepares for
+the overlay and returns the framebuffer parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FBUF``
+does, or it returns an error code.
+
+For a *destructive Video Overlay* applications must additionally provide
+a ``base`` address. Setting up a DMA to a random memory location can
+jeopardize the system security, its stability or even damage the
+hardware, therefore only the superuser can set the parameters for a
+destructive video overlay.

+
+ This field is irrelevant to *non-destructive Video Overlays*.
+
+ For *destructive Video Overlays* both applications and drivers can
+ set this field to request padding bytes at the end of each line.
+ Drivers however may ignore the requested value, returning
+ ``width`` times bytes-per-pixel or a larger value required by the
+ hardware. That implies applications can just set this field to
+ zero to get a reasonable default.
+
+ For *Video Output Overlays* the driver must return a valid value.
+
+ Video hardware may access padding bytes, therefore they must
+ reside in accessible memory. Consider for example the case where
+ padding bytes after the last line of an image cross a system page
+ boundary. Capture devices may write padding bytes, the value is
+ undefined. Output devices ignore the contents of padding bytes.
+
+ When the image format is planar the ``bytesperline`` value applies
+ to the first plane and is divided by the same factor as the
+ ``width`` field for the other planes. For example the Cb and Cr

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls are used to negotiate the format of data (typically image
+format) exchanged between driver and application.
+
+To query the current parameters applications set the ``type`` field of a
+struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_format` to the respective buffer (stream)
+type. For example video capture devices use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` or
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE``. When the application calls the
+``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure the driver fills
+the respective member of the ``fmt`` union. In case of video capture
+devices that is either the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format <v4l2-pix-format>` ``pix`` or the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_pix_format_mplane <v4l2-pix-format-mplane>` ``pix_mp``
+member. When the requested buffer type is not supported drivers return
+an EINVAL error code.
+
+To change the current format parameters applications initialize the
+``type`` field and all fields of the respective ``fmt`` union member.
+For details see the documentation of the various devices types in
+:ref:`devices`. Good practice is to query the current parameters
+first, and to modify only those parameters not suitable for the
+application. When the application calls the ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl with
+a pointer to a :c:type:`struct v4l2_format` structure the driver
+checks and adjusts the parameters against hardware abilities. Drivers
+should not return an error code unless the ``type`` field is invalid,
+this is a mechanism to fathom device capabilities and to approach
+parameters acceptable for both the application and driver. On success
+the driver may program the hardware, allocate resources and generally
+prepare for data exchange. Finally the ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` ioctl returns
+the current format parameters as ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` does. Very simple,
+inflexible devices may even ignore all input and always return the
+default parameters. However all V4L2 devices exchanging data with the
+application must implement the ``VIDIOC_G_FMT`` and ``VIDIOC_S_FMT``
+ioctl. When the requested buffer type is not supported drivers return an
+EINVAL error code on a ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` attempt. When I/O is already in
+progress or the resource is not available for other reasons drivers
+return the EBUSY error code.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` ioctl is equivalent to ``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` with one
+exception: it does not change driver state. It can also be called at any
+time, never returning EBUSY. This function is provided to negotiate
+parameters, to learn about hardware limitations, without disabling I/O
+or possibly time consuming hardware preparations. Although strongly
+recommended drivers are not required to implement this ioctl.
+
+The format as returned by ``VIDIOC_TRY_FMT`` must be identical to what
+``VIDIOC_S_FMT`` returns for the same input or output.

+
+Ronald Bultje elaborates:
+
+APP is some application-specific information. The application can set it
+itself, and it'll be stored in the JPEG-encoded fields (eg; interlacing
+information for in an AVI or so). COM is the same, but it's comments,
+like 'encoded by me' or so.
+
+jpeg_markers describes whether the huffman tables, quantization tables
+and the restart interval information (all JPEG-specific stuff) should be
+stored in the JPEG-encoded fields. These define how the JPEG field is
+encoded. If you omit them, applications assume you've used standard
+encoding. You usually do want to add them.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the attributes of a modulator applications initialize the
+``index`` field and zero out the ``reserved`` array of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_modulator <v4l2-modulator>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_G_MODULATOR`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. Drivers
+fill the rest of the structure or return an EINVAL error code when the
+index is out of bounds. To enumerate all modulators applications shall
+begin at index zero, incrementing by one until the driver returns
+EINVAL.
+
+Modulators have two writable properties, an audio modulation set and the
+radio frequency. To change the modulated audio subprograms, applications
+initialize the ``index`` and ``txsubchans`` fields and the ``reserved``
+array and call the ``VIDIOC_S_MODULATOR`` ioctl. Drivers may choose a
+different audio modulation if the request cannot be satisfied. However
+this is a write-only ioctl, it does not return the actual audio
+modulation selected.
+
+:ref:`SDR <sdr>` specific modulator types are ``V4L2_TUNER_SDR`` and
+``V4L2_TUNER_RF``. For SDR devices ``txsubchans`` field must be
+initialized to zero. The term 'modulator' means SDR transmitter in this
+context.
+
+To change the radio frequency the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` ioctl is available.

+Description
+===========
+
+The current video standard determines a nominal number of frames per
+second. If less than this number of frames is to be captured or output,
+applications can request frame skipping or duplicating on the driver
+side. This is especially useful when using the :c:func:`read()` or
+:c:func:`write()`, which are not augmented by timestamps or sequence
+counters, and to avoid unnecessary data copying.
+
+Further these ioctls can be used to determine the number of buffers used
+internally by a driver in read/write mode. For implications see the
+section discussing the :ref:`read() <func-read>` function.
+
+To get and set the streaming parameters applications call the
+``VIDIOC_G_PARM`` and ``VIDIOC_S_PARM`` ioctl, respectively. They take a
+pointer to a struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_streamparm` which contains a
+union holding separate parameters for input and output devices.

+ different mode from the regular motion video capture modes. In
+ high quality mode:
+
+ - The driver may be able to capture higher resolutions than for
+ motion capture.
+
+ - The driver may support fewer pixel formats than motion capture
+ (eg; true color).
+
+ - The driver may capture and arithmetically combine multiple
+ successive fields or frames to remove color edge artifacts and
+ reduce the noise in the video data.
+
+ - The driver may capture images in slices like a scanner in order
+ to handle larger format images than would otherwise be
+ possible.
+
+ - An image capture operation may be significantly slower than
+ motion capture.
+
+ - Moving objects in the image might have excessive motion blur.
+
+ - Capture might only work through the :c:func:`read()` call.

+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE`` and use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``. The next step is setting the
+value of struct :ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` ``target``
+field to ``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` (``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE``). Please refer
+to table :ref:`v4l2-selections-common` or :ref:`selection-api` for
+additional targets. The ``flags`` and ``reserved`` fields of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` are ignored and they must be
+filled with zeros. The driver fills the rest of the structure or returns
+EINVAL error code if incorrect buffer type or target was used. If
+cropping (composing) is not supported then the active rectangle is not
+mutable and it is always equal to the bounds rectangle. Finally, the
+struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` ``r`` rectangle is filled with
+the current cropping (composing) coordinates. The coordinates are
+expressed in driver-dependent units. The only exception are rectangles
+for images in raw formats, whose coordinates are always expressed in
+pixels.
+
+To change the cropping (composing) rectangle set the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` ``type`` field to the
+respective buffer type. Do not use multiplanar buffers. Use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE``. Use
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT`` instead of
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``. The next step is setting the
+value of struct :ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` ``target`` to
+``V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP`` (``V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE``). Please refer to table
+:ref:`v4l2-selections-common` or :ref:`selection-api` for additional
+targets. The struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` ``r`` rectangle need
+to be set to the desired active area. Field struct
+:ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` ``reserved`` is ignored and
+must be filled with zeros. The driver may adjust coordinates of the
+requested rectangle. An application may introduce constraints to control
+rounding behaviour. The struct :ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>`
+``flags`` field must be set to one of the following:
+
+- ``0`` - The driver can adjust the rectangle size freely and shall
+ choose a crop/compose rectangle as close as possible to the requested
+ one.
+
+- ``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_GE`` - The driver is not allowed to shrink the
+ rectangle. The original rectangle must lay inside the adjusted one.
+
+- ``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_LE`` - The driver is not allowed to enlarge the
+ rectangle. The adjusted rectangle must lay inside the original one.
+
+- ``V4L2_SEL_FLAG_GE | V4L2_SEL_FLAG_LE`` - The driver must choose the
+ size exactly the same as in the requested rectangle.
+
+Please refer to :ref:`sel-const-adjust`.
+
+The driver may have to adjusts the requested dimensions against hardware
+limits and other parts as the pipeline, i.e. the bounds given by the
+capture/output window or TV display. The closest possible values of
+horizontal and vertical offset and sizes are chosen according to
+following priority:
+
+1. Satisfy constraints from struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_selection <v4l2-selection>` ``flags``.
+
+2. Adjust width, height, left, and top to hardware limits and
+ alignments.
+
+3. Keep center of adjusted rectangle as close as possible to the
+ original one.
+
+4. Keep width and height as close as possible to original ones.
+
+5. Keep horizontal and vertical offset as close as possible to original
+ ones.
+
+On success the struct :ref:`v4l2_rect <v4l2-rect>` ``r`` field
+contains the adjusted rectangle. When the parameters are unsuitable the
+application may modify the cropping (composing) or image parameters and
+repeat the cycle until satisfactory parameters have been negotiated. If
+constraints flags have to be violated at then ERANGE is returned. The
+error indicates that *there exist no rectangle* that satisfies the
+constraints.

+Description
+===========
+
+To query and select the current video standard applications use the

+
+``VIDIOC_S_STD`` accepts one or more flags, being a write-only ioctl it
+does not return the actual new standard as ``VIDIOC_G_STD`` does. When
+no flags are given or the current input does not support the requested
+standard the driver returns an EINVAL error code. When the standard set

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the attributes of a tuner applications initialize the ``index``
+field and zero out the ``reserved`` array of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_tuner <v4l2-tuner>` and call the ``VIDIOC_G_TUNER`` ioctl
+with a pointer to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure
+or return an EINVAL error code when the index is out of bounds. To
+enumerate all tuners applications shall begin at index zero,
+incrementing by one until the driver returns EINVAL.
+
+Tuners have two writable properties, the audio mode and the radio
+frequency. To change the audio mode, applications initialize the
+``index``, ``audmode`` and ``reserved`` fields and call the
+``VIDIOC_S_TUNER`` ioctl. This will *not* change the current tuner,
+which is determined by the current video input. Drivers may choose a
+different audio mode if the requested mode is invalid or unsupported.
+Since this is a write-only ioctl, it does not return the actually
+selected audio mode.
+
+:ref:`SDR <sdr>` specific tuner types are ``V4L2_TUNER_SDR`` and
+``V4L2_TUNER_RF``. For SDR devices ``audmode`` field must be initialized
+to zero. The term 'tuner' means SDR receiver in this context.
+
+To change the radio frequency the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY <vidioc-g-frequency>` ioctl is available.

+
+ Tuner capability flags, see :ref:`tuner-capability`. Audio flags

+
+ When the structure refers to a radio tuner the
+ ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_LANG1``, ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_LANG2`` and
+ ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_NORM`` flags can't be used.
+
+ If multiple frequency bands are supported, then ``capability`` is
+ the union of all ``capability`` fields of each struct
+ :ref:`v4l2_frequency_band <v4l2-frequency-band>`.

+ is set, in units of 1 Hz. If multiple frequency bands are
+ supported, then ``rangelow`` is the lowest frequency of all the
+ frequency bands.
+

+ frequency of all the frequency bands.
+
+ - .. row 7
+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``rxsubchans``
+

+
+ Some tuners or audio decoders can determine the received audio

+ :ref:`tuner-rxsubchans` in this field. For example:
+
+ - .. row 8

+ - ``MONO | STEREO | LANG1 | LANG2``
+
+ - receiving mono, stereo or bilingual audio
+
+ - .. row 13
+
+ -
+ -
+ - :cspan:`1`
+
+ When the ``V4L2_TUNER_CAP_STEREO``, ``_LANG1``, ``_LANG2`` or
+ ``_SAP`` flag is cleared in the ``capability`` field, the
+ corresponding ``V4L2_TUNER_SUB_`` flag must not be set here.

+
+Description
+===========
+
+As the video/audio devices become more complicated it becomes harder to
+debug problems. When this ioctl is called the driver will output the
+current device status to the kernel log. This is particular useful when
+dealing with problems like no sound, no video and incorrectly tuned
+channels. Also many modern devices autodetect video and audio standards
+and this ioctl will report what the device thinks what the standard is.
+Mismatches may give an indication where the problem is.
+
+This ioctl is optional and not all drivers support it. It was introduced
+in Linux 2.6.15.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set

+
+``request``
+ VIDIOC_QBUF, VIDIOC_DQBUF
+
+``argp``
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Applications call the ``VIDIOC_QBUF`` ioctl to enqueue an empty
+(capturing) or filled (output) buffer in the driver's incoming queue.
+The semantics depend on the selected I/O method.
+
+To enqueue a buffer applications set the ``type`` field of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` to the same buffer type as was
+previously used with struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` ``type``
+and struct :ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``type``.
+Applications must also set the ``index`` field. Valid index numbers
+range from zero to the number of buffers allocated with
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` (struct
+:ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``count``) minus
+one. The contents of the struct :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer` returned
+by a :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYBUF <vidioc-querybuf>` ioctl will do as well.
+When the buffer is intended for output (``type`` is
+``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT``, ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OUTPUT_MPLANE``,
+or ``V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI_OUTPUT``) applications must also initialize the
+``bytesused``, ``field`` and ``timestamp`` fields, see :ref:`buffer`
+for details. Applications must also set ``flags`` to 0. The
+``reserved2`` and ``reserved`` fields must be set to 0. When using the
+:ref:`multi-planar API <planar-apis>`, the ``m.planes`` field must
+contain a userspace pointer to a filled-in array of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` and the ``length`` field must be set
+to the number of elements in that array.
+
+To enqueue a :ref:`memory mapped <mmap>` buffer applications set the
+``memory`` field to ``V4L2_MEMORY_MMAP``. When ``VIDIOC_QBUF`` is called
+with a pointer to this structure the driver sets the
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_MAPPED`` and ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` flags and clears
+the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` flag in the ``flags`` field, or it returns an
+EINVAL error code.
+
+To enqueue a :ref:`user pointer <userp>` buffer applications set the
+``memory`` field to ``V4L2_MEMORY_USERPTR``, the ``m.userptr`` field to
+the address of the buffer and ``length`` to its size. When the
+multi-planar API is used, ``m.userptr`` and ``length`` members of the
+passed array of struct :ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` have to be used
+instead. When ``VIDIOC_QBUF`` is called with a pointer to this structure
+the driver sets the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` flag and clears the
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_MAPPED`` and ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` flags in the
+``flags`` field, or it returns an error code. This ioctl locks the
+memory pages of the buffer in physical memory, they cannot be swapped
+out to disk. Buffers remain locked until dequeued, until the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl is called, or until the
+device is closed.
+
+To enqueue a :ref:`DMABUF <dmabuf>` buffer applications set the
+``memory`` field to ``V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF`` and the ``m.fd`` field to a
+file descriptor associated with a DMABUF buffer. When the multi-planar
+API is used the ``m.fd`` fields of the passed array of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` have to be used instead. When
+``VIDIOC_QBUF`` is called with a pointer to this structure the driver
+sets the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` flag and clears the
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_MAPPED`` and ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` flags in the
+``flags`` field, or it returns an error code. This ioctl locks the
+buffer. Locking a buffer means passing it to a driver for a hardware
+access (usually DMA). If an application accesses (reads/writes) a locked
+buffer then the result is undefined. Buffers remain locked until
+dequeued, until the :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <vidioc-streamon>` or
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl is called, or until the
+device is closed.
+
+Applications call the ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` ioctl to dequeue a filled
+(capturing) or displayed (output) buffer from the driver's outgoing
+queue. They just set the ``type``, ``memory`` and ``reserved`` fields of
+a struct :ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` as above, when
+``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` is called with a pointer to this structure the driver
+fills the remaining fields or returns an error code. The driver may also
+set ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_ERROR`` in the ``flags`` field. It indicates a
+non-critical (recoverable) streaming error. In such case the application
+may continue as normal, but should be aware that data in the dequeued
+buffer might be corrupted. When using the multi-planar API, the planes
+array must be passed in as well.
+
+By default ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` blocks when no buffer is in the outgoing
+queue. When the ``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given to the
+:ref:`open() <func-open>` function, ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` returns
+immediately with an EAGAIN error code when no buffer is available.
+
+The :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer` structure is specified in
+:ref:`buffer`.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+
+EAGAIN
+ Non-blocking I/O has been selected using ``O_NONBLOCK`` and no
+ buffer was in the outgoing queue.
+
+EINVAL
+ The buffer ``type`` is not supported, or the ``index`` is out of
+ bounds, or no buffers have been allocated yet, or the ``userptr`` or
+ ``length`` are invalid.
+
+EIO
+ ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` failed due to an internal error. Can also indicate
+ temporary problems like signal loss. Note the driver might dequeue
+ an (empty) buffer despite returning an error, or even stop
+ capturing. Reusing such buffer may be unsafe though and its details
+ (e.g. ``index``) may not be returned either. It is recommended that
+ drivers indicate recoverable errors by setting the
+ ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_ERROR`` and returning 0 instead. In that case the
+ application should be able to safely reuse the buffer and continue
+ streaming.
+
+EPIPE
+ ``VIDIOC_DQBUF`` returns this on an empty capture queue for mem2mem
+ codecs if a buffer with the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST`` was already
+ dequeued and no new buffers are expected to become available.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The hardware may be able to detect the current DV timings automatically,
+similar to sensing the video standard. To do so, applications call
+``VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS`` with a pointer to a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_dv_timings <v4l2-dv-timings>`. Once the hardware detects
+the timings, it will fill in the timings structure.
+
+Please note that drivers shall *not* switch timings automatically if new
+timings are detected. Instead, drivers should send the
+``V4L2_EVENT_SOURCE_CHANGE`` event (if they support this) and expect
+that userspace will take action by calling ``VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS``.
+The reason is that new timings usually mean different buffer sizes as
+well, and you cannot change buffer sizes on the fly. In general,
+applications that receive the Source Change event will have to call
+``VIDIOC_QUERY_DV_TIMINGS``, and if the detected timings are valid they
+will have to stop streaming, set the new timings, allocate new buffers
+and start streaming again.
+

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl is part of the :ref:`streaming <mmap>` I/O method. It can
+be used to query the status of a buffer at any time after buffers have
+been allocated with the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` ioctl.
+
+Applications set the ``type`` field of a struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` to the same buffer type as was
+previously used with struct :ref:`v4l2_format <v4l2-format>` ``type``
+and struct :ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``type``,
+and the ``index`` field. Valid index numbers range from zero to the
+number of buffers allocated with
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` (struct
+:ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``count``) minus
+one. The ``reserved`` and ``reserved2`` fields must be set to 0. When
+using the :ref:`multi-planar API <planar-apis>`, the ``m.planes``
+field must contain a userspace pointer to an array of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_plane <v4l2-plane>` and the ``length`` field has to be set
+to the number of elements in that array. After calling
+``VIDIOC_QUERYBUF`` with a pointer to this structure drivers return an
+error code or fill the rest of the structure.
+
+In the ``flags`` field the ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_MAPPED``,
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_PREPARED``, ``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_QUEUED`` and
+``V4L2_BUF_FLAG_DONE`` flags will be valid. The ``memory`` field will be
+set to the current I/O method. For the single-planar API, the
+``m.offset`` contains the offset of the buffer from the start of the
+device memory, the ``length`` field its size. For the multi-planar API,
+fields ``m.mem_offset`` and ``length`` in the ``m.planes`` array
+elements will be used instead and the ``length`` field of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_buffer <v4l2-buffer>` is set to the number of filled-in
+array elements. The driver may or may not set the remaining fields and
+flags, they are meaningless in this context.
+
+The :c:type:`struct v4l2_buffer` structure is specified in
+:ref:`buffer`.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
+

+ The buffer ``type`` is not supported, or the ``index`` is out of
+ bounds.

+Description
+===========
+
+All V4L2 devices support the ``VIDIOC_QUERYCAP`` ioctl. It is used to
+identify kernel devices compatible with this specification and to obtain
+information about driver and hardware capabilities. The ioctl takes a
+pointer to a struct :ref:`v4l2_capability <v4l2-capability>` which is
+filled by the driver. When the driver is not compatible with this
+specification the ioctl returns an EINVAL error code.
+
+
+.. _v4l2-capability:
+

+ :widths: 1 1 2
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - __u8
+
+ - ``driver``\ [16]
+
+ - Name of the driver, a unique NUL-terminated ASCII string. For
+ example: "bttv". Driver specific applications can use this
+ information to verify the driver identity. It is also useful to
+ work around known bugs, or to identify drivers in error reports.
+
+ Storing strings in fixed sized arrays is bad practice but
+ unavoidable here. Drivers and applications should take precautions
+ to never read or write beyond the end of the array and to make
+ sure the strings are properly NUL-terminated.
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - __u8
+
+ - ``card``\ [32]
+
+ - Name of the device, a NUL-terminated UTF-8 string. For example:
+ "Yoyodyne TV/FM". One driver may support different brands or
+ models of video hardware. This information is intended for users,
+ for example in a menu of available devices. Since multiple TV
+ cards of the same brand may be installed which are supported by
+ the same driver, this name should be combined with the character
+ device file name (e. g. ``/dev/video2``) or the ``bus_info``
+ string to avoid ambiguities.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - __u8
+
+ - ``bus_info``\ [32]
+
+ - Location of the device in the system, a NUL-terminated ASCII
+ string. For example: "PCI:0000:05:06.0". This information is
+ intended for users, to distinguish multiple identical devices. If
+ no such information is available the field must simply count the
+ devices controlled by the driver ("platform:vivi-000"). The
+ bus_info must start with "PCI:" for PCI boards, "PCIe:" for PCI
+ Express boards, "usb-" for USB devices, "I2C:" for i2c devices,
+ "ISA:" for ISA devices, "parport" for parallel port devices and
+ "platform:" for platform devices.
+
+ - .. row 4
+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``version``
+
+ - Version number of the driver.
+
+ Starting with kernel 3.1, the version reported is provided by the
+ V4L2 subsystem following the kernel numbering scheme. However, it
+ may not always return the same version as the kernel if, for
+ example, a stable or distribution-modified kernel uses the V4L2
+ stack from a newer kernel.
+
+ The version number is formatted using the ``KERNEL_VERSION()``
+ macro:
+
+ - .. row 5

+ - :cspan:`2`
+
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))

+ (version >> 8) & 0xFF,
+ version & 0xFF);
+
+ - .. row 6
+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``capabilities``
+
+ - Available capabilities of the physical device as a whole, see
+ :ref:`device-capabilities`. The same physical device can export
+ multiple devices in /dev (e.g. /dev/videoX, /dev/vbiY and
+ /dev/radioZ). The ``capabilities`` field should contain a union of
+ all capabilities available around the several V4L2 devices
+ exported to userspace. For all those devices the ``capabilities``
+ field returns the same set of capabilities. This allows
+ applications to open just one of the devices (typically the video
+ device) and discover whether video, vbi and/or radio are also
+ supported.
+
+ - .. row 7
+
+ - __u32
+
+ - ``device_caps``
+
+ - Device capabilities of the opened device, see
+ :ref:`device-capabilities`. Should contain the available
+ capabilities of that specific device node. So, for example,
+ ``device_caps`` of a radio device will only contain radio related
+ capabilities and no video or vbi capabilities. This field is only
+ set if the ``capabilities`` field contains the
+ ``V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS`` capability. Only the ``capabilities``
+ field can have the ``V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS`` capability,
+ ``device_caps`` will never set ``V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS``.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To query the attributes of a control applications set the ``id`` field
+of a struct :ref:`v4l2_queryctrl <v4l2-queryctrl>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. The driver
+fills the rest of the structure or returns an EINVAL error code when the
+``id`` is invalid.
+
+It is possible to enumerate controls by calling ``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL``
+with successive ``id`` values starting from ``V4L2_CID_BASE`` up to and
+exclusive ``V4L2_CID_LASTP1``. Drivers may return EINVAL if a control in
+this range is not supported. Further applications can enumerate private
+controls, which are not defined in this specification, by starting at
+``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` and incrementing ``id`` until the driver
+returns EINVAL.
+
+In both cases, when the driver sets the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_DISABLED`` flag
+in the ``flags`` field this control is permanently disabled and should
+be ignored by the application. [1]_
+
+When the application ORs ``id`` with ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` the
+driver returns the next supported non-compound control, or EINVAL if
+there is none. In addition, the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_COMPOUND`` flag
+can be specified to enumerate all compound controls (i.e. controls with
+type ≥ ``V4L2_CTRL_COMPOUND_TYPES`` and/or array control, in other words
+controls that contain more than one value). Specify both
+``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` and ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_COMPOUND`` in
+order to enumerate all controls, compound or not. Drivers which do not
+support these flags yet always return EINVAL.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL`` ioctl was introduced in order to better
+support controls that can use compound types, and to expose additional
+control information that cannot be returned in struct
+:ref:`v4l2_queryctrl <v4l2-queryctrl>` since that structure is full.
+
+``VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRL`` is used in the same way as
+``VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL``, except that the ``reserved`` array must be zeroed
+as well.
+
+Additional information is required for menu controls: the names of the
+menu items. To query them applications set the ``id`` and ``index``
+fields of struct :ref:`v4l2_querymenu <v4l2-querymenu>` and call the
+``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. The driver
+fills the rest of the structure or returns an EINVAL error code when the
+``id`` or ``index`` is invalid. Menu items are enumerated by calling
+``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU`` with successive ``index`` values from struct
+:ref:`v4l2_queryctrl <v4l2-queryctrl>` ``minimum`` to ``maximum``,
+inclusive. Note that it is possible for ``VIDIOC_QUERYMENU`` to return
+an EINVAL error code for some indices between ``minimum`` and
+``maximum``. In that case that particular menu item is not supported by
+this driver. Also note that the ``minimum`` value is not necessarily 0.
+
+See also the examples in :ref:`control`.

+ unsigned 32-bit value.
+
+ Generally drivers should not scale hardware control values. It may
+ be necessary for example when the ``name`` or ``id`` imply a
+ particular unit and the hardware actually accepts only multiples
+ of said unit. If so, drivers must take care values are properly
+ rounded when scaling, such that errors will not accumulate on
+ repeated read-write cycles.
+
+ This field gives the smallest change of an integer control
+ actually affecting hardware. Often the information is needed when
+ the user can change controls by keyboard or GUI buttons, rather
+ than a slider. When for example a hardware register accepts values
+ 0-511 and the driver reports 0-65535, step should be 128.
+
+ Note that although signed, the step value is supposed to be always
+ positive.

+Description
+===========
+
+The hardware may be able to detect the current video standard
+automatically. To do so, applications call ``VIDIOC_QUERYSTD`` with a
+pointer to a :ref:`v4l2_std_id <v4l2-std-id>` type. The driver
+stores here a set of candidates, this can be a single flag or a set of
+supported standards if for example the hardware can only distinguish
+between 50 and 60 Hz systems. If no signal was detected, then the driver
+will return V4L2_STD_UNKNOWN. When detection is not possible or fails,
+the set must contain all standards supported by the current video input
+or output.
+
+Please note that drivers shall *not* switch the video standard
+automatically if a new video standard is detected. Instead, drivers
+should send the ``V4L2_EVENT_SOURCE_CHANGE`` event (if they support
+this) and expect that userspace will take action by calling
+``VIDIOC_QUERYSTD``. The reason is that a new video standard can mean
+different buffer sizes as well, and you cannot change buffer sizes on
+the fly. In general, applications that receive the Source Change event
+will have to call ``VIDIOC_QUERYSTD``, and if the detected video
+standard is valid they will have to stop streaming, set the new
+standard, allocate new buffers and start streaming again.
+
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl is used to initiate :ref:`memory mapped <mmap>`,
+:ref:`user pointer <userp>` or :ref:`DMABUF <dmabuf>` based I/O.
+Memory mapped buffers are located in device memory and must be allocated
+with this ioctl before they can be mapped into the application's address
+space. User buffers are allocated by applications themselves, and this
+ioctl is merely used to switch the driver into user pointer I/O mode and
+to setup some internal structures. Similarly, DMABUF buffers are
+allocated by applications through a device driver, and this ioctl only
+configures the driver into DMABUF I/O mode without performing any direct
+allocation.
+
+To allocate device buffers applications initialize all fields of the
+:c:type:`struct v4l2_requestbuffers` structure. They set the ``type``
+field to the respective stream or buffer type, the ``count`` field to
+the desired number of buffers, ``memory`` must be set to the requested
+I/O method and the ``reserved`` array must be zeroed. When the ioctl is
+called with a pointer to this structure the driver will attempt to
+allocate the requested number of buffers and it stores the actual number
+allocated in the ``count`` field. It can be smaller than the number
+requested, even zero, when the driver runs out of free memory. A larger
+number is also possible when the driver requires more buffers to
+function correctly. For example video output requires at least two
+buffers, one displayed and one filled by the application.
+
+When the I/O method is not supported the ioctl returns an EINVAL error
+code.
+
+Applications can call ``VIDIOC_REQBUFS`` again to change the number of
+buffers, however this cannot succeed when any buffers are still mapped.
+A ``count`` value of zero frees all buffers, after aborting or finishing
+any DMA in progress, an implicit

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` and ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` ioctl start and stop
+the capture or output process during streaming
+(:ref:`memory mapping <mmap>`, :ref:`user pointer <userp>` or
+:ref:`DMABUF <dmabuf>`) I/O.
+
+Capture hardware is disabled and no input buffers are filled (if there
+are any empty buffers in the incoming queue) until ``VIDIOC_STREAMON``
+has been called. Output hardware is disabled and no video signal is
+produced until ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` has been called. The ioctl will
+succeed when at least one output buffer is in the incoming queue.
+
+Memory-to-memory devices will not start until ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` has
+been called for both the capture and output stream types.
+
+If ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` fails then any already queued buffers will remain
+queued.
+
+The ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` ioctl, apart of aborting or finishing any DMA
+in progress, unlocks any user pointer buffers locked in physical memory,
+and it removes all buffers from the incoming and outgoing queues. That
+means all images captured but not dequeued yet will be lost, likewise
+all images enqueued for output but not transmitted yet. I/O returns to
+the same state as after calling
+:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` and can be restarted
+accordingly.
+
+If buffers have been queued with :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF <vidioc-qbuf>` and
+``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` is called without ever having called
+``VIDIOC_STREAMON``, then those queued buffers will also be removed from
+the incoming queue and all are returned to the same state as after
+calling :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS <vidioc-reqbufs>` and can be restarted
+accordingly.
+
+Both ioctls take a pointer to an integer, the desired buffer or stream
+type. This is the same as struct
+:ref:`v4l2_requestbuffers <v4l2-requestbuffers>` ``type``.
+
+If ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` is called when streaming is already in progress,
+or if ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` is called when streaming is already stopped,
+then 0 is returned. Nothing happens in the case of ``VIDIOC_STREAMON``,
+but ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` will return queued buffers to their starting
+state as mentioned above.
+
+Note that applications can be preempted for unknown periods right before
+or after the ``VIDIOC_STREAMON`` or ``VIDIOC_STREAMOFF`` calls, there is
+no notion of starting or stopping "now". Buffer timestamps can be used
+to synchronize with other events.
+
+

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl lets applications enumerate available frame intervals on a
+given sub-device pad. Frame intervals only makes sense for sub-devices
+that can control the frame period on their own. This includes, for
+instance, image sensors and TV tuners.
+
+For the common use case of image sensors, the frame intervals available
+on the sub-device output pad depend on the frame format and size on the
+same pad. Applications must thus specify the desired format and size
+when enumerating frame intervals.
+
+To enumerate frame intervals applications initialize the ``index``,
+``pad``, ``which``, ``code``, ``width`` and ``height`` fields of struct
+:ref:`v4l2_subdev_frame_interval_enum <v4l2-subdev-frame-interval-enum>`
+and call the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_ENUM_FRAME_INTERVAL`` ioctl with a pointer
+to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an
+EINVAL error code if one of the input fields is invalid. All frame
+intervals are enumerable by beginning at index zero and incrementing by
+one until EINVAL is returned.
+
+Available frame intervals may depend on the current 'try' formats at
+other pads of the sub-device, as well as on the current active links.
+See :ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` for more
+information about the try formats.
+
+Sub-devices that support the frame interval enumeration ioctl should
+implemented it on a single pad only. Its behaviour when supported on
+multiple pads of the same sub-device is not defined.

+Sub-devices that only support discrete frame sizes (such as most

+
+Not all possible sizes in given [minimum, maximum] ranges need to be
+supported. For instance, a scaler that uses a fixed-point scaling ratio
+might not be able to produce every frame size between the minimum and
+maximum values. Applications must use the
+:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT <vidioc-subdev-g-fmt>` ioctl to try the
+sub-device for an exact supported frame size.
+
+Available frame sizes may depend on the current 'try' formats at other

+
+ **Note**
+
+ This is an :ref:`obsolete <obsolete>` interface and may be removed
+ in the future. It is superseded by
+ :ref:`the selection API <vidioc-subdev-g-selection>`.
+
+To retrieve the current crop rectangle applications set the ``pad``
+field of a struct :ref:`v4l2_subdev_crop <v4l2-subdev-crop>` to the
+desired pad number as reported by the media API and the ``which`` field
+to ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_ACTIVE``. They then call the
+``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_CROP`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure. The
+driver fills the members of the ``rect`` field or returns EINVAL error
+code if the input arguments are invalid, or if cropping is not supported
+on the given pad.
+
+To change the current crop rectangle applications set both the ``pad``
+and ``which`` fields and all members of the ``rect`` field. They then
+call the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_CROP`` ioctl with a pointer to this
+structure. The driver verifies the requested crop rectangle, adjusts it
+based on the hardware capabilities and configures the device. Upon
+return the struct :ref:`v4l2_subdev_crop <v4l2-subdev-crop>`
+contains the current format as would be returned by a
+``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_CROP`` call.
+
+Applications can query the device capabilities by setting the ``which``
+to ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY``. When set, 'try' crop rectangles are not
+applied to the device by the driver, but are mangled exactly as active
+crop rectangles and stored in the sub-device file handle. Two
+applications querying the same sub-device would thus not interact with
+each other.
+
+Drivers must not return an error solely because the requested crop
+rectangle doesn't match the device capabilities. They must instead
+modify the rectangle to match what the hardware can provide. The
+modified format should be as close as possible to the original request.

+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These ioctls are used to negotiate the frame format at specific subdev
+pads in the image pipeline.
+
+To retrieve the current format applications set the ``pad`` field of a
+struct :ref:`v4l2_subdev_format <v4l2-subdev-format>` to the desired
+pad number as reported by the media API and the ``which`` field to
+``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_ACTIVE``. When they call the
+``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure the
+driver fills the members of the ``format`` field.
+
+To change the current format applications set both the ``pad`` and
+``which`` fields and all members of the ``format`` field. When they call
+the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT`` ioctl with a pointer to this structure the
+driver verifies the requested format, adjusts it based on the hardware
+capabilities and configures the device. Upon return the struct
+:ref:`v4l2_subdev_format <v4l2-subdev-format>` contains the current
+format as would be returned by a ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT`` call.
+
+Applications can query the device capabilities by setting the ``which``
+to ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY``. When set, 'try' formats are not applied
+to the device by the driver, but are changed exactly as active formats
+and stored in the sub-device file handle. Two applications querying the
+same sub-device would thus not interact with each other.
+
+For instance, to try a format at the output pad of a sub-device,
+applications would first set the try format at the sub-device input with
+the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT`` ioctl. They would then either retrieve the
+default format at the output pad with the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_FMT`` ioctl,
+or set the desired output pad format with the ``VIDIOC_SUBDEV_S_FMT``
+ioctl and check the returned value.
+
+Try formats do not depend on active formats, but can depend on the
+current links configuration or sub-device controls value. For instance,
+a low-pass noise filter might crop pixels at the frame boundaries,
+modifying its output frame size.
+
+Drivers must not return an error solely because the requested format
+doesn't match the device capabilities. They must instead modify the
+format to match what the hardware can provide. The modified format
+should be as close as possible to the original request.

+don't support frame intervals must not implement these ioctls.

+ has changed to the first value.
+
+ Since it can't tell whether that event was caused by another

+YUV Formats
+***********
+
+YUV is the format native to TV broadcast and composite video signals. It
+separates the brightness information (Y) from the color information (U
+and V or Cb and Cr). The color information consists of red and blue
+*color difference* signals, this way the green component can be
+reconstructed by subtracting from the brightness component. See
+:ref:`colorspaces` for conversion examples. YUV was chosen because
+early television would only transmit brightness information. To add
+color in a way compatible with existing receivers a new signal carrier
+was added to transmit the color difference signals. Secondary in the YUV
+format the U and V components usually have lower resolution than the Y
+component. This is an analog video compression technique taking
+advantage of a property of the human visual system, being more sensitive
+to brightness information.
